[Verse 1]
A Amaj7  x2
 
    A       Amaj7             A     Amaj7
His goal in life was to be an echo
A                  Amaj7            Bm
Riding alone, town after town, toll after toll
  Dm                                              A       Amaj7  A  Amaj7
A fixed bayonet through the great southwest to forget her
      A   Amaj7     C#m    E
She appears in his dreams
F#m                        F#mmaj7
But in his car and in his arms
                 Bm       Bm7
A dream can mean anything
  Dm                                     C
A cheap sunset on a television set can upset her
             E
But he never could
 
 
[Chorus]
  C#m          E
Remember to remember me
  C#m           E7
Standing still in your past
E7b13                A
Floating fast like a hummingbird
 
 
[Verse 2]
    E       Emaj7              C#m     Emaj7
His goal in life was to be an echo
            E                                 Emaj7
The type of sound that floats around and then back down
       F#m
Like a feather
            Am
But in the deep chrome canyons of the loudest Manhattans
   E
No one could hear him
      B
Or anything
      E  Emaj7    G#m        B
So he slept on a mountain
     C#m                         G#/C#
In a sleeping bag underneath the stars
                       F#m         A/C#
He would lie awake and count them
        Am
And the gray fountain spray of the great Milky Way
            G
Would never let him
     B
Die alone
 
 
[Chorus]
  E           Emaj7
Remember to remember me
C#m             E7
Standing still in your past
E7b13                 A
Floating fast like a hummingbird
 
 
[Chorus]
  E           Emaj7
Remember to remember me
 C#m           E7
Standing still in your past
E7b13                A
Floating fast like a hummingbird
 
 
[Outro]
  B
A hummingbird
 
A hummingbird
