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
