Although you know the snow will follow.

Try To Remember
Recorded by Ricky Nelson
Written By Harvey Schmidt and Tom Jones
 
A very nice oldie (classic) done very well
by Ricky and seldom played (mostly, I guess
cause no one knows about it.)
 
A VERY easy version to play.
 
in 3/4 time
 
C, play with capo on 2nd fret to play with the youtube
song.  (I often play without the capo, to match
my own vocal range.)
 
 
 
C        Em         F          G7
Try to remember the kind of September
     C        Em       F     G7
When life was slow and oh so mellow
C        Em         F          G7
Try to remember the kind of September
     C         Em        F         G7
When grass was green and grain was yellow
 
Em       Am          F           G7
Try to remember when life was so tender
     C           Em    F        G7
That love was an ember about to billow
C        Em         F        G7
Try to remember and if you remember
     C      Em  F  G7
Then follow
 
C        Em          F           G7
Try to remember when life was so tender
     C      Em     F        G7
That no one wept except the willow
C        Em          F           G7
