[Intro] G C G C G [Verse 1]
             C       G                        C              G
Once I was a soldier, and I fought on foreign sands for you

             C      G                         C             G
Once I was a hunter, and I brought home fresh meat for you

             C     G                           C             G
Once I was a lover, and I searched behind your eyes for you

                  C      G                  C           Em
Soon there'll be another, to tell you I was just a lie
[Chorus]
           G       C                  D      Em
And sometimes___ I wonder, just for a while

            G             D   C     G   C   G
Will you ever___ remember me____
[Verse 2]
                       C     G           C               G
And though you have forgotten all of our rubbish dreams

              C        G                         C      G
I find myself searching through the ashes of our ruins

                     C     G                       C     G
For the days when we smiled and the hours that ran wild

                      C   G                       C      Em
With the magic of our eyes and the silence of our words
[Chorus]
           G       C                  D      Em
And sometimes___ I wonder, just for a while

            G             D   C
Will you ever___ remember me____
Remember me
         G    C    G
Remember me
