Verse 1
(C major) I (G major) (A minor) (G major) (C major) (G major) (E minor) (D major)
(C major) (G major) (A minor) (G major) (C major) (G major)
(E minor) (D major) (G major) stumbled (C major) on a bunch of junk (G major) of mine
In a shoebox (C major) the other night (G major)
In between (C major) cleaning up
piles (G major) of messes
That (E minor) I've made of my life (D major)
Ticket stub (C major) s, love poems and old (G major) letters
I dumped them (C major) all out on the bed (G major)
Found a (C major) homemade birthday
card (G major) from my mom
And (E minor) this is (D major) what it said (G major)
Yeah, (E minor) this is (D major) what it said (G major)
Verse 2
Don't for (C major) get the little moments
They're the (G major) ones that mean the most
When the (C major) way home seems so far away
Take 'em (E minor) out and hold them close (D major)
And take a (C major) picture with your father (G major)
'Cause (C major) one day he'll be gone (E minor)
And don't for (C major) get to fill an old (G major) shoebox
Full of things (E minor) to look (D major) back on (G major)
Full of things (E minor) to look (D major) back on (G major)
(C major) (G major) (E minor) (D major)
