"Try to remember"
From: The Fantasticks
Words by tom jones; music by Harvey Schmidt.
Not much to say about this, except that I should probably dedicate it to the lives lost
in the Sept. 11 attacks, because these words really sound like they go with that day.
To get the timing down, i can send you a copy of the song, and you really might want the song
(hint hint), because it's and easier one that you can play & sing at the same time.
And because it's a waltz, i may have spaced some words differently, so be expecting it. God bless!

Lyrics:
Verse 1
Try to remember the kind of September
When life was slow and, oh, so mellow.
Try to remember the kind of September
When grass was green and grain was yellow.
Try to remember the kind of September when
you were a tender and callow fellow.
Try to remember, and
if you remember
Then follow (echo)
Follow follow
Follow follow follow
follow follow follow
Verse 2
Try to remember when life was so tender
That no one wept except the willow
Try to remember when life was so tender
that dreams were kept beside your pillow
Try to remember when life was so tender that
love was and ember about to billow
Try to remember, and
if you remember Then follow (echo)
Follow follow etc.
Verse 3
Deep in December it's nice to remember,
Although you know the snow will follow.
Deep in December it's nice to remember
Without a hurt, the heart is hollow.
Deep in december it's nice to remember the
fire of September that made us mellow.
Deep in December our hearts should remember,
And follow (echo)
follow follow etc.
