Everything Takes Me Back (Trace Adkins)
Intro: D --- C---- G----D (see chord formations at bottom)
[D] It's a song on the [C] radio
It's your [G] picture on the wall of my bed [D]room
It's any [D] one of a million [C] memories
Girl, [G] everything takes me back but [D] you
It's every [D] place that we've [C] ever been
It's [G] runnin' into someone we both [D] knew
Or it's the [D] face of a total [C] stranger
Girl, [G] everything takes me back but [D] you
I've [C] called you up, I've [D] begged and pleaded, left [G] love letters at your [D] door
Though I [C] broke your heart, you [D] gotta believe it [G] hurt me even [D] more
So [C] what's it gonna take, [D] what you wanna hear girl I [G] think I paid my [D] dues
And it [C] might be just, but it [D] don't seem fair
That [C] everything [G] takes me back but [D] you....hmm..[D]- [C] -[G]- [D]
[D] It's the sound or it's the [C] silence
It's the [G] thought that what I've done I can't un[D]do
Or it's the [D] dream I can't put [C] behind me
Girl [G] everything takes me back but [D] you
I've [C] called you up, I've [D] begged and pleaded, left [G] love letters at your [D] door
Though I [C] broke your heart, you [D] gotta believe it [G] hurt me even [D] more
So [C] what's it gonna take, [D] what you wanna hear girl I [G] think I paid my [D] dues
And it [C] might be just, but it [D] just ain't fair
That [C] everything [G] takes me back but [D] you
It's the [D] night or it's the [C] morning
It's the [G] thunder rollin' in before it [D] rains
Or it's a [D] long, long, long, long stretch of [C] highway
Girl it's [G] nothin' and it's everything, [D] yeah it's everything
Yeah [C] everything [G] takes me back but [D] you
Girl, [C] everything [G] takes me back but [D] you
The tuning is drop D---(lower the bottom E string 1 step to D)- hit it often to get the low bass sound in the song
I don't know the exact chord names so what I'm calling D, C, and G are as follows
D- 000230
C- 020030
G- 500003
It sounds cool when you alternate pick the strings of the chords along with the occasional strum
