I Won't Forget You Chords

(ver. 1)
Poison



This is my "open mic-nite" version. It holds its own and is a lot easier 
to play! This version sounds great with no other instrument accompaniment! 

***Play POWER CHORDS where you see the "open chord" notations to give the song a heavier sound ***


I can see that my contribution has really taken off 
since I submitted it. Thanks for paying it a visit. If you like this 
version, don't forget to give it a good rating! 

02-28-2010 . . . Finished adding the rest of the chord changes
and I added CC's solo, but the way I play it(you won't need a 
whammy bar but you will need a good thumb capo).

Intro: G power chord, D power chord (A string 5th fret), 
C power chord (A-3), B power chord (A-2), open A chord. 
The strumming is 1,1-2 for the first 3 chords, for the C power chord, 
strum it 4 more times, then the B and A once.

use POWER CHORD equivalents for a more percussive rhythm
(Note~ each period "." after the lyric represents single chord strikes) 

    G              D  
Late at night I close my eyes, 

          C                                   B-A
and think how things could have been . . . .  

  G             D
And when    I look back 

                 C                         B (ring and hold for one beat)
I remember some words that you said to me  

         A
It's better to have lost at love, 

     C(strum w/ syllables)    D 
than never to have loved at- all  

CHORUS (hold the D chord)    G (same strumming as the intro) 
I won't for        -         get you babe
                                       D
                                 (I won't forget you)

     A         C                 G
even though I could    I won't forget you babe    I won't

    D                 A      C   ~ G,G,G,D,C,B,C,A (back to intro chords)
forget you    eventhough I should, 

     G     D                 C                 . . . .BA
Sometimes in my head I can still see pictures of you,

G             D                      C
And I laugh to myself when I think of all the crazy things

                   B(hold for A couple beats)
that we used to do.

A (constant single beat strumming) C                  D
All those miles come between us, just between you and me

CHORUS (hold the D chord)    G (same strumming as the intro) 
I won't for        -         get you babe
                                       D
                                 (I won't forget you)

     A         C                 G
even though I could    I won't forget you babe    I won't

    D                 A      C       C
forget you    eventhough I should, well  

A     C                    D(hold D)
I should let you fade away  but that just wouldn't be me 
 (D should still be ringing)CCC-CCCC-BA

A - steady strumming                  C                   D
