Capo 3rd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

I remember when mom and dad named you Claire

before you were born, before you had hair

you don't remember, but I was there

i remember how you broke your arm,

and now how you tell it you get it all wrong

 i loved you then and from now on

 it was a long time ago

it was a long time ago

i remember when mom and dad brought you home

 I was so used to being alone and then i wasn't alone

there must be some reason for flesh and blood

some other purpose for staying in touch

oh we shared so much

I remember when mom and dad named you Claire

before you were born before you had hair

 you don't remember, but I was there

it was a long time ago

it was a long time ago

it was a long time ago
