Harry Chapin - Remember When The Music Chords

 [Intro]
D  G  A    A  G  D

[Verse]
  D
Remember when the music
G                                   D
Came from wooden boxes strung with silver wire
    A                               G
And as we sang the words, it would set our minds on fire,
     D                     A             A7 Asus A
We believed in things, and so we'd sing.

[Verse]
  D
Remember when the music
G                                     D
Brought us all together    to stand inside the rain
    A                               G
And as we'd join our hands, we'd meet in the refrain,
     D                     A                     A7 Asus A
For we had dreams to live, we had hopes to give.

[Verse]
  D
Remember when the music
G                                   D
Was the best of what we dreamed of for our children's time
    A                               G
And as we sang we worked, for knew time was just a line,
     D                     A                     A7 Asus A
It was a gift we saved, a gift the future gave.

[Chorus]
     G                               D
Oh all the times I've listened, and all the times I've heard
         G                         D
All the melodies I'm missing, and all the magic words,
     Bm                            F#m
And all those potent voices, and the choices we had then,
       Em                               A         A/G A/F# A/E
How I'd love to find we had that kind of choice again.

[Verse]
  D
Remember when the music
G                                   D
Was a glow on the horizon of every newborn day
    A                               G
And as we sang, the sun came up to chase the dark away,
     D                     A                     A7 Asus A
And life was good, for we knew we could.

[Verse]
  D
Remember when the music
G                                   D
Brought the night across the valley as the day went down
    A                               G
And as we'd hum the melody, we'd be safe inside the sound,
     D                     A                     A7 Asus A
And so we'd sleep, we had dreams to keep.

[Chorus]
     G                               D
And I feel that something's coming, and it's not just in the wind.
         G                         D
It's more than just tomorrow, it's more than where we've been,
     Bm                            F#m
It offers me a promise, it's telling me "Begin",
       Em                               A      A/G  A/F#  A/E
I know we're needing something worth believing in.

[Verse]
  D
Remember when the music
G                                   D
Was a rock that we could cling to so we'd not despair,
    A                               G
And as we sang we knew we'd hear an echo fill the air
     D                     A                     A7 Asus A
We'd be smiling then, we would smile again.

[Verse]
  D
Remember when the music
G                                   D
Came from wooden boxes strung with silver wire
    A                               G
And as we sang the words, it would set our minds on fire,
     D                     A                     A7 Asus A
We believed in things, and so we'd sing.
      A               D  G  A    A  G  D
 and so we'd sing.
