Remember When The Music

Bruce Springstein


Tom: G

G
Remember when the music
C
Came from wooden boxes
             G
Strung with silver wires
    D
And as we sang
                 C
The words would set our hearts on fire
     G
To believe in things
D
So we'd sing
G
Remember when the music
C
Brought us all together
            G
To stand inside the rain
    D
And as we'd join hands
      C
We'd meet in the refrain
       G
With dreams to live
     D
And hope to give
G
Remember when the music
          C
Was the best that we'd dream of
            G
For our's children's time
     D
And as we'd worked we'd sing
               C
Cause we knew time

Was just a lie
   G
A gift to say
       D
A gift that future gave
 G
Remember when the music
       C
Was a rock we could cling to
                  G
So we would not despair
    D
And as we sang we'd knew
              C
We'd hear an echo in the air
                   G
And if we weren't smiling then
       D      G
We'd smile again
     C
And all the times I listened
     G
And all the times I heard
     C
And all the melodies I'm missing
     G              G/F#
And all the magic words
        G/E          G/D
All the beautiful voices
             C
And all the choices we had then I hope you find you got
                D
Those kind of choices once again
 G
Remember when the music
              C
Brought the night

Across the valley
        G
As the day went down
    D
And as we hum the melody

         C
We'd be safe within the sound
 D
So we'd sleep
                 D
To awake with dreams
                  G
And promises to keep
