Making Memories of Us

Making Memories of Us written by Rodney Crowell NOTE: For those of you wondering, this is the same as KU's version with a capo on I (up a half-step from E to F). I'll put the capo'd chords at the bottom, but it's just as easy to play it without a capo. There are also some chords that Crowell doesn't play that KU does. INTRO: F Am Bb F Am C F C Am Bb I'm gonna be here for you baby, I'll be a man of my word F C Dm Bb Speak the language in a voice that you have never heard F C Am Bb I wanna sleep with you forever, I wanna die in your arms F C Dm Bb In a cabin by a meadow where the wild bees swarm CHORUS: Bb F Bb F I'm gonna love you, like nobody loves you Bb Dm C F I'll win your trust makin' memories of us I wanna honor your mother, I wanna learn from your pa I wanna steal your attention like a bad outlaw I wanna stand out in a crowd for you, a man among men I wanna make your world better than it's ever been CHORUS: I wanna love you, like nobody loves you I'll earn your trust makin' memories of us BRIDGE: Am7 F Bb F We'll follow the rainbow, wherever the four winds blow Am Dm Bb C There'll be a new day, comin' your way I'm gonna be here for ya from now on, this you know somehow You've been stretched to the limit but it's alright now I'm gonna make you a promise, if there's life after this I'm gonna be there to meet you with a warm wet kiss CHORUS: I'm gonna love you, like nobody loves you I'll win your trust makin' memories of us CHORUS: Bb F Bb F I'm gonna love you, like nobody loves you Bb (let ring) Dm (quiet) C (quiet) F I'll earn your trust makin' memories of us OUTRO: F Am C F CHORDS with a capo on I: F = E C = B Bb = A Am = G#m Am7 = G#m7 Dm = C#m
