...I REMEMBER WHEN... by The Coral
---------------------.............

*from 'The Coral' (2002)*


Intro:

Bm  Em, D  F#7 (x2)

Verse 1:

Bm          Em
 I remember when,
D              F#7
 I saw the sea freeze.
Bm           Em
 But it said nothing,
D                        F#7
 About the birds and the bees.

          Bm
They were swarming,
          Em
Around my head;
D                    F#7
 You'd be better off dead.

Bridge 1:

      G                     F#m
But I ain't going down like that.
  G                     F#m
I ain't going down like that.

Chorus 1:

         Bm
'Cos I'm better than him,
      Em
And I know where I've been,
    D                     F#7
You know where I'm coming from.
        Bm
And I'm hired to sin,
    Em
But don't we all sin?
D
 That is the truth,
        F#7
And the truth is grim.

         Bm
It ain't easy in jail,
    Em
The stories for sale,
     D
Your father has died,
           F
While he's gripped for bail.
   Bm
He points to the west,
       Em
And he leaves out the rest,
    D
And wants you to be,
    F#7
His special guest.

Interlude:

G     F#m
 Oo...oh,
G     F#m
 Oo...oh.

Verse 2:
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/c/coral/i_remember_when_crd.html ]
Bm          Em
 I remember when,
D                 F#7
 I saw the leaves fall.
Bm            Em
 I was in the woods,
        G
And the gown you,
                     F#7
Wouldn't wear to the Ball.
Bm                Em
 Into the ditch I fly;
D                 F#7
 Wanted dead or a-live.

Bridge 2:

      G                     F#m
But I ain't going down like that.
      G                     F#m
No, I ain't going down like that.

Chorus 2:

         Bm
'Cos I'm better than him,
      Em
And I know where I've been,
    D                     F#7
You know where I'm coming from.
        Bm
And I'm hired to sin,
    Em
But don't we all sin?
D
 That is the truth,
        F#7
And the truth is grim.

         Bm
It ain't easy in jail,
    Em
The stories for sale,

Your father has died,
           F
