Sometimes I Forget by Loudon Wainwright III






       Sometimes I Forget







Tuning: E A D G B E
Capo: 1st fret

G                 C
Sometimes I forget that you've gone
D                                  G      D
You've gone, and you're not coming back
G                       C
And it's hard to believe that you're still not here
D                                 G
What's left behind, disputes that fact
 
 
C                          G
Your closet's full of your clothes and your shoes
C                                      G
And your bookcase still holds all your books
C                                       G
It's as if all you've done is go out of town
C                               D
You'll be back soon, that's just how it looks
 
 
Am                          G
But your suitcase is empty, it's right here in the hall
Am                            G
That's not even the strangest thing
Am                          G
Why would you leave your wallet behind
C                  D              Am
Your glasses, your wristwatch and ring
C                  D              G
Your glasses, your wristwatch and ring
 
 
G                 C
Sometimes I forget that you've gone
D                        G      D
That we'll never see you again
G                                            C
I think for a moment, I've got to give him a call
D                         G
But I can't now I realize that
 
 
C                                 G
No we can't meet for lunch at the usual place
C                        G
The place where we always would go
C                                            G
And there was something I wanted to tell you so bad
C                          D
Something I knew that you'd want to know
 
 
Am                   G
I could go by myself to our old haunt
Am                          G
That seems like such a strange thing to do
Am                                G
The waiters would wonder what was going on
C               D                 Am
Why weren't you there, where were you
C                D                G
Why weren't you there, where were you
 
 
G                 C
Sometimes I forget that you've gone
D                         G      D
I remember and I feel the ache
G                          C
How could it have happened, how could it be
D                            G
It's not true, there must be some mistake
 
 
C                  G
Momentos, memories, tell me what good are they
C                                  G
No they're not much to have and to hold
C                                                    G
And it's true that you're gone and you're not coming back
C                                 D
And this world seems so empty and cold
 
 
Am                                          G
But sometimes things happen It doesn't seem strange
Am                          G
You're not far away, you're near
Am                 G
Sometimes I forget that you've gone
C                  D           Am
Sometimes it feels like you're right here
C            D                       G
Right now it feels like you're right here
