Danny Hamilton - This Old Drawer Cifras

[Verse 1]
 
G                D          G              D
An old pack of luckies, a builder’s kit
G               D             G            D
Sittin’ right next to my first catcher’s mitt
G               D         Bm             D
Books with my name on I ain’t seen before
G                A             D
I found ‘em all in this old drawer
 
G            D         G          D
A talent show medal, says I’m a star
   G           D          G           D
A picture my mom took of my first car
  G                 D        Bm           D
It hasn’t been opened fifteen years or more
     G        A             D
I’m opening up this old drawer
 
[Chorus 1]
 
       A                    G          D
In a dresser that I must’ve left for dead
        A                        G     D
In the bedroom where I used to lay my head
         G          D    G           D
Full of old memories, tossed in a heap
        Bm          D         G               D
That I couldn’t let go but I couldn’t quite keep
     Em                                   Asus2
Of a life that seemed to have so much in store
      Em        Em/F#   G       A         D
But I guess I left it here in this old drawer
 
[Verse 2]
 
G                  D
Down in the bottom
     G               D
With dust for a coat
   G            D              G             D
A binder that holds all the letters she wrote
 G         D         Bm           D
Open it up and she fills up the room
      G               A           D
They smell just like her old perfume
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 
A                          G         D
Lord I can still see her standing there
A                     G           D
Tyin’ a braid in her long brown hair
            G        D    G          D
It’s these old memories tossed in a heap
        Bm          D         G              D
That I couldn’t let go but I couldn’t quite keep
     Em                              Asus2   A
Of a future that I just can’t see no more
   Em      Em/F#     G      A          D
I never should have opened this old drawer
 
 
[Bridge]
 
          Bm           G       D
This old drawer is a time machine
Bm                 G      D
Just like that I’m seventeen
C                 G            Bm               D
Drivin’ south at sunset, gotta have her home by ten
 Bm                    G       D
Livin’ through those perfect years
Bm                     G       D
But pretty soon I’m fightin’ tears
       C                G              A             D
Cause suddenly I’m livin’ through the losing her again
 
[Instrumental]
 
D          G G/F# Em      G           D
 
 
[Chorus 3]
 
A                           G        D
This is the drawer where I left her ring
A                         G          D
It’s all I can do not to burn this thing
         G          D    G           D
Full of old memories I don’t wanna know
       Bm           D         G            D
And I couldn’t hold on but I couldn’t let go
            Em                           Asus2
And I don’t know how to walk on out that door
    F#m            Em
And never think about them anymore
      Em        Em/F#     G       A         D
So I guess I’ll leave em here in this old drawer
