Try to Remember

The Brothers Four are an American folk group founded in 1957 in Seattle, Washington. Bob Flick, John Paine, Mike Kirkland, and Dick Foley met at the University of Washington, where they were members of the Phi Gamma Delta fraternity in 1956. Their first professional performances were the result of a prank played on them in 1958 by a rival fraternity, who had arranged for someone to call them, pretend to be from Seattle's Colony Club, and invite them to come down to audition for a gig.

I may not have mansion, I haven't any land

Not even a paper dollar to crinkle in my hands
    E              B       E             G#m
But I can show you morning on a thousand hills
    A                            E B E
And kiss you and give you seven daffodils

I do not have a fortune to buy you pretty things
A                   C#m      F#m                B
But I can weave you moonbeams for necklaces and rings
    E              B       E             G#m
And I can show you morning on a thousand hills

And kiss you and give you seven daffodils

Oh, seven golden daffodils all shining in the sun
A                     C#m   F#m             B           
To light our way to evening when our day is done
    E                 B   E             G#m
And I will give you music and a crust of bread
       A                        E   B    E
And a pillow of piny boughs to rest your head

A pillow of piny boughs to rest your head...

Try to remember the kind of September

When life was slow and oh so mellow
F#                  G#m        C#7
Try to remember the kind of September
     F#        D#m       G#m       C#7  
When grass was green and grain was yellow.

F#       D#m        G#m       C#7        
Try to remember the kind of September
F#              D#m        E     C#7
When you were a tender and happy fellow
F#                  G#m      C#7
Try to remember and if you remember
     F#      D#m      G#m     C#7  
Then follow (follow), follow (follow)

Try to remember when life was so tender
That no one had wept except the willow
Try to remember when life was so tender
When dreams were kept beside your pillow.

And deep in December it's nice to remember
Too fire of September that made us mellow
Try to remember and if you remember
Then follow, follow...

You Make It Real

G         Em		  
1) Almost heaven,   West Virginia,
2) All my mem'ries, gather round her, 

   D			 C                G
1) Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah       River.
2) miner's lady,         stranger to blue water.

                      Em  
1) Life is old there, older than the trees, 
2) Dark and dusty,    painted on the sky, 

   D
1) younger than the mountains
2) misty taste of moonshine

   C			G
1) growin' like a breeze.
2) teardrop in my eye.

              G              D            Em        C
       Country roads, take me home, to the place I belong.
	      G               D              C            G
     West Virginia, Mountain momma, take me home Country roads


           Em       D            G 
 	I hear her voice in the morning hour she calls me,
            C        G              D 
        the radio reminds her of my home far away
            Em               D            C
        and driving down the road I get a feeling 
 	       G                     D          D7    G
        that I should have been home yesterday, yesterday.

School Friends

Am      C              F              C
I had a dream, we were sipping whisky neat
        F              C                 G
Highest floor, the Bowery, and nowhere’s high enough
    Am              C                F             C
Somewhere along the lines, we stopped seeing eye to eye
         F               C           G
You were staying out all night and I had enough


      F           Am             F                    C       
No, I don't wanna know where you been or where you're goin’
      F               Am                 G
But I know I won't be home and you'll be on your own


            F                    C                G
Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning?
            F                 C                 G
Who's gonna rock you when the sun won't let you sleep?
             F                C               G         E7   Am
Who's waking up to drive you home when you're drunk and all alone?
             F                    C                G
Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning, it ain’t me


Am        C              G         F   
Ow-ow, ah-ah the Bowery, ow-ow, ah-ah whiskey neat
Am          C       G         G
Where y’go, I’m so, grateful, I (it ain’t me)

Where y’go, I’m so, grateful, I (it ain’t me)


Am  C  Am       C              F           C
       I had a dream, we were back to seventeen
       F                   C            G
Summer nights and the Libertines, never growing up
Am             C          F                 C
I'll take with me the polaroids and the memories
        F              C                G
But you know I'm gonna leave behind the worst of us


             F                    C                G

Who's gonna walk you through the dark side of the morning

King Creole

C F G C

C
She don't like her eggs all runny
C
She thinks crossin' her legs is funny
    F
She looks down her nose at money
    C 
She gets it on like the Easter Bunny
G      
She's my baby I'm her honey
                       C    G    C
I'm never gonna let her go
C
He ain't got laid in a month of Sundays
C
I caught him once and he was sniffin' my undies
   F
He ain't too sharp but he gets things done
C
Drinks his beer like it's oxygen
G
He's my baby
G
And I'm his honey
                    C   G   C
Never gonna let him go
             F
In spite of ourselves
                             C
We'll end up a'sittin' on a rainbow
             G
Against all odds
                          C
Honey, we're the big door prize
             F
We're gonna spite our noses
                 C
Right off of our faces
                                    G
There won't be nothin' but big old hearts
               C     G   C
Dancin' in our eyes.
C
She thinks all my jokes are corny
C
Convict movies make her horny
    F
She likes ketchup on her scrambled eggs
C
Swears like a sailor when shaves her legs
G
She takes a lickin'
G
And keeps on tickin'
                        C   G   C
I'm never gonna let her go.
C
He's got more balls than a big brass monkey

He's a whacked out weirdo and a lovebug junkie
F
Sly as a fox and crazy as a loon
C
Payday comes and he's howlin' at the moon
G
He's my baby I don't mean maybe
                    C   G   C
Never gonna let him go

              F
In spite of ourselves

We'll end up a'sittin' on a rainbow
             G
Against all odds

Honey, we're the big door prize
             F
We're gonna spite our noses
                 C
Right off of our faces
                                    G
There won't be nothin' but big old hearts
               C     G   C
Dancin' in our eyes.
