More Than A Memory Tab

by Garth Brooks


Capo 1
			
People say she's only in my head 
			  
It's gonna take time, but I'll forget 
			
They say I need to get on with my life 
		
What they don't realize 

         			
Is when you're dialing 6 numbers just to hang up the phone 
(B)
Drivin' 'cross town just to see if she's home 

Waking a friend in the dead of the night 

Just to hear him say it's gonna be alright
 
When you find the things to do not fall asleep 
(B)
'Cause you know she'll be there in your dreams 

That's when she's 
			
More than a memory 

				
Took a match to everything she ever wrote 
			     
Watched her words go up in smoke 
			
Tore all her pictures off the wall 
		       
That ain't helping me at all 

     (B)      
'Cause when you're talkin out loud and nobody's there 
(B)
Ya look like Hell and you just don't care 

Drinkin more than you ever drank 

And sinking down lower than you ever sank 

When you find yourself falling down upon your knees 
(B)
Prayin' to God, beggin' him "please" 

That's when she's 
			    
More than a memory 

              
She's more 
                
She's more 

	     (B)  
'Cause when you're dialin' her number just to hang up the phone 
(B)
Drivin' 'cross town just to see if she's home 

Wakin' a friend in the dead of night 
F (No Chord)
Just to hear 'em say it's gonna be alright 

When ya find the things to do not to fall asleep 
(B)
'Cause you know she's waiting, in your dreams 

That's when she's 
			  (B)    
More than a memory 

			
People say she's only in my head 

It's gonna take time but I'll forget
