Intro: G | G/F# | G | G/F# | G | G/F#| Em | D | C  


         G
 Found a box of memories,
                          G/F#
 Read a letter, Dropped a tear where you signed your name.
                 Em                 D                  C
 And turnin' the page, smearin' the ink and the love always.
        G
 Girl I always start this way.
                     G/F#
 Then I wind up in a bottle screamin' out your name.
                  Em              D                   C
 And Punchin' the walls, carryin' on like I've gone insane
 D/E                                                 C
 In the mirror I can see the man that just shook his head with no remorse
 D/E                                         C                            
 Watched an angel cryin tears packin all her things as she walked out the 
 D
 door

Chorus:
                   G                  G
 Cause there ain't nothin' like a memory
                     Em
 When it's comin' on strong like a hurricane
         C                               D
 How can love like that just up and walk away

 It's killin' me baby
             G                  G/F#
 It's got me pourin' up another drink
                      Em
 Bourbon's hittin' me hard like a freight train
         C                            Em 
 With my back against a wall or on my knees
                        D                       G | G/F# | Em
 When the worst of your memory gets the best of me

 Verse 2:
      G
 I remember it all too well
          G/F# 
 Ridin' 441 down to Milledgeville
                  Em                D                     C  
 And Crossin' the bridge, while the sun set on Lake Saint Claire
            G
 I couldn't wait to see your smile, 
                   G/F#
 but all I saw was tears in you pretty eyes
                  Em          D                  C
 And That said it all, it was all down hill from there.
 D/E                                   C
 And I remember you saying baby please don't give up on me
 D/E                                     C               D
 All but baby this stubborn man is gonna lie in the bed he made

Chorus 2:
                   G                  G
 Cause there ain't nothin' like a memory
                     Em
 When it's comin' on strong like a hurricane
         C                               D
 How can love like that just up and walk away

 It's killin' me baby
             G                  G/F#
 It's got me pourin' up another drink
                     Em
 Bourbons hittin' me hard like a freight train
         C                            Em
 With my back against a wall or on my knees
                        D                       Em | G/F# | C | D
 When the worst of your memory gets the best of me

 Chorus 3: 
(chords in background)

                   G
 Cause there ain't nothin' like a memory
                     Em
 When it's comin' on strong like a hurricane
         C                               D
 How can love like that just up and walk away

 It's killin' me baby (full sound on chords now)
             G                  G/F#
 It's got me pourin' up another drink
                     Em
 Bourbons hittin' me hard like a freight train
         C                            Em
 With my back against a wall or on my knees
                        D                       G  | G/F# | Em | D | C
 When the worst of your memory gets the best of me

G | G/F# | Em | D | C

This is in my opinion Jason Aldean's best song yet. And it's a shame that it 
probably won't hit the radio.
