Every Mile A Memory Tab

Capo 2nd Fret

The first version of this song that was posted was excellent.  I saw Dierks 
play it on CMT's Summerfest though and he had a Capo on the 2nd fret.  I think 
this way is a little easier.

Intro chord with the run.  The run ends up becoming
  chord. 


(Verse 1)

 	  (run)                     (run) 	        
Country roads, old theater marquee signs
 	  (run)                     (run)
Parking lots, and billboards flying by
 	  	  	       
Spanish moss, little hicktown squares
 	 
Wild roses on a riverbank 
 	   
Girl it's almost like you're there, oh

(Chorus)

 	 
Every mile a memory

Every song another scene
     
From some old movie
        
Goin back in time to you and me

Every day a page turned down

Every night a lonesome sound
                                 
Like a freigh train rollin through my dreams
NC
Every mile a memory      Intro


(Verse 2)

         (run)                      (run)
Red sun down, out across the western sky
         (run)                      (run)
Takes me back, to the fire in your eyes
                        
Texas stars, in a purple night
         
Not seein them with you, baby
 	   
Oh they never do look right, no



(Repeat Chorus)


(Bridge)

                           
Funny how no matter where I run
                                               
Round every bend I only see just how far I haven't come

(Repeat chorus)

Repeat intro twice until end
