                  C 
Every once in a while 
             G 
I think about you 
         Am            
And your strawberry hair 
            F                G 
The little things we used to do 
 
 
I even called your old number 
But it wasn't the same 
Some strangers voice 
On the answering machine 
 
 
Chorus: 
        Am 
But the feelings remain, 
       G 
After all this time 
              Am 
And those old memories won't fade, 
          G 
From the back of my mind 
 
 
When I hear and old song 
Then I'm with you again 
In that one room apartment 
We had time and we had plans 
 
But plans fall through 
And dreams run dry 
They just slowly disappear 
Like a deardrop from your eye 
 
 
Chorus 
 
 
Bridge: 
                  G      
I don't know if I love you 
           F 
Only think of you 
G          C 
Once in a while 
 
 
Instrumental (Verse 2x) 
 
 
Chorus 
 
 
Every once in a while 
I could see you cry 
And I'm saying I'm not 
But I can't say why 
 
I hear you got married 
And had a beautiful child 
And I only think about you 
F    G     C     repeat verse pattern and fade 
Once in a while 
 
 
An idea of the picking used: 
 
Verse: 
  C                G               Am               F      G
