[Intro]
A Amaj7 x2
[Verse 1]
A Amaj7 A Amaj7
His goal in life was to be an echo
A Amaj7 Bm
Riding alone, town after town, toll after toll
Dm A Amaj7 A Amaj7
A fixed bayonet through the great southwest to forget her
A Amaj7 C#m E
She appears in his dreams
F#m F#mMaj7
But in his car and in his arms
Bm D
A dream can mean anything
DmII C
A cheap sunset on a television set could upset her
E
But he never could
[Chorus]
C#m E
Remember to remember me
C#m E7
Standing still in your past
E7addC A
Floating fast like a hummingbird
[Verse 2]
E Emaj7 C#m Emaj7
His goal in life was to be an echo
E
The type of sound that floats around
Emaj7 F#m
And then back down like a feather
Am
But in the deep chrome canyons of the loudest Manhattans
E
No one could hear him
B
Or anything
E Emaj7 G#m B
So he slept on a mountain
C#m G#/C#
In a sleeping bag underneath the stars
F#m A
He would lie awake and count them
Am
And the gray fountain spray of the great Milky Way
G B
Would never let him die alone
[Chorus]
E Emaj7
Remember to remember me
C#m E7
Standing still in your past
E7addC A
Floating fast like a hummingbird
E Emaj7
Remember to remember me
C#m E7
Standing still in your past
E7addC A B
Floating fast like a hummingbird, hummingbird
E Emaj7 G#m C#m G#/C# F#m Am
