That Was Me - Todd Snider
(1994 Margaritaville/MCA)

The verse is basically G's and C's with the occasional D.  Keep in mind
that this is a really simplified version of the song.  I'll post a
better version when I have time, but this should get you started.

G  320033
C  x32033

VERSE:

Remember back about five years ago
Drivin' down the highway
Saw a kid there by the road
Long blonde dirty hair
His thumb out in the air
That was me
That was me
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/todd_snider/that_was_me_crd.html ]
Remember the kid that walked into your store
The one you told you were sorry
You weren't hiring anymore
So he walked out your door
His head hung toward the floor
That was me
That was me

CHORUS:

      D                    C              G
Well I'm the face you've seen a million times
      D          C              G                D
The one who never seems to fit in between those lines
     C             D
I'm every broken dream
        G             C
This world has left behind
          G           D             G
I'm the face you've seen a million times


Remember the kid you saw that night downtown
Singing on the sidewalk
Guitar case on the ground
He looked down on his luck
So you threw him a buck
That was me
That was me

Remember back about five years ago
Drivin' down the highway
Saw a kid there by the road
Long blonde dirty hair
His thumb out in the air
That was me
That was me
That was me
