Intro: G | G/F# | G | G/F# | G | G/F#| Em | D | C
G
Found a box of memories,
G/F#
Read a letter, Dropped a tear where you signed your name.
Em D C
And turnin' the page, smearin' the ink and the love always.
G
Girl I always start this way.
G/F#
Then I wind up in a bottle screamin' out your name.
Em D C
And Punchin' the walls, carryin' on like I've gone insane
D/E C
In the mirror I can see the man that just shook his head with no remorse
D/E C
Watched an angel cryin tears packin all her things as she walked out the
D
door
Chorus:
G G
Cause there ain't nothin' like a memory
Em
When it's comin' on strong like a hurricane
C D
How can love like that just up and walk away
It's killin' me baby
G G/F#
It's got me pourin' up another drink
Em
Bourbon's hittin' me hard like a freight train
C Em
With my back against a wall or on my knees
D G | G/F# | Em
When the worst of your memory gets the best of me
Verse 2:
G
I remember it all too well
G/F#
Ridin' 441 down to Milledgeville
Em D C
And Crossin' the bridge, while the sun set on Lake Saint Claire
G
I couldn't wait to see your smile,
G/F#
but all I saw was tears in you pretty eyes
Em D C
And That said it all, it was all down hill from there.
D/E C
And I remember you saying baby please don't give up on me
D/E C D
All but baby this stubborn man is gonna lie in the bed he made
Chorus 2:
G G
Cause there ain't nothin' like a memory
Em
When it's comin' on strong like a hurricane
C D
How can love like that just up and walk away
It's killin' me baby
G G/F#
It's got me pourin' up another drink
Em
Bourbons hittin' me hard like a freight train
C Em
With my back against a wall or on my knees
D Em | G/F# | C | D
When the worst of your memory gets the best of me
Chorus 3:
(chords in background)
G
Cause there ain't nothin' like a memory
Em
When it's comin' on strong like a hurricane
C D
How can love like that just up and walk away
It's killin' me baby (full sound on chords now)
G G/F#
It's got me pourin' up another drink
Em
Bourbons hittin' me hard like a freight train
C Em
With my back against a wall or on my knees
D G | G/F# | Em | D | C
When the worst of your memory gets the best of me
G | G/F# | Em | D | C
This is in my opinion Jason Aldean's best song yet. And it's a shame that it
probably won't hit the radio.
