The tab is actually a simplified version of the fiddle intro. I included
the chord names in case you want to fill in the inner beats with chord
strums (like I do). I'm afraid you'll have to play with it to get the
feel right for this. The intro is in D and changes key to E at the end.
Intro: D G D
[A] [D] [G]
If you play chords use this
Key Change for last 4 notes (C shape)
[D#] [E]
(Each chord (or pair of chords joined by a hyphen) is one measure)
As I [E]look at the [E7]letters that [A]you wrote to [A]me
It's [E]you that [E]I am thinking [B7]of[B7]
As [E]I read the [E7]lines that to [A]me were so [A]sweet
I re[E]member our [B7]faded [E]love[-][A][E]
CHORUS: E E A A (I like barre chords
I miss you, darling, more and more every day for the chorus -Greg)
As [E]heaven would [E]miss the stars [B7]above[B7]
With [E]every [E]heartbeat, I still [A]think of [A]you
And re[E]member our [B7]faded [E]love[-][A][E]
[E](ins[B7]trume[E]nt[-]al[A])[E]
As I think of the past and all the pleasures we had
As I watched the mating of the doves
It was in the springtime that you said goodbye
I remember our faded love
CHORUS
