[Verse]
G C G C
Once I was a soldier, And I fought on foreign sands for you
G C G C
Once I was a hunter, And I brought home fresh meat for you
G C G C
Once I was a lover, And I searched behind your eyes for you
G C G C
And soon there'll be another, To tell you I was just a lie
[Chorus]
Em C D
And sometimes I wonder, Just for a while
Em D
Will you ever remember me
[Verse 2]
G C G C
And though you have forgotten, All of our rubbish dreams
G C G C
I find myself searching, Through the ashes of our ruins
G C G C
For the days when we smiled, And the hours that ran wild
G C G C
With the magic of our eyes, And the silence of our words
[Chorus 2]
Em C D
And sometimes I wonder, Just for a while
Em D
Will you ever remember me
[Outro]
D Em G
Everrrr, remember meeeee-eee
