{title: Love Me}
{st: As Sung by Collin Raye}
[C]I read a [Em]note my [Am]grandma wrote,
Back i[F]n 1[[G]92[C]3.
Grandpa [Em]kept it [Am]in his coat,
And he [Dm]showed it once to [G]me.
He said, [C]Boy, you [Em]might not [Am]understand,
But a [F]long, long [G]time [C]ago,
Grandma's [Em]daddy didn't [Am]like me [F]none,
But I [G]loved your grandma so.
[C]We had this [Em]crazy [Am]plan to meet,
[F]And run [G]away toge[C]ther,
Get married [Em]in the the [Am]first town we cam [Dm]to,
And live [G]forever.
[C]But nailed [Em]to the [Am]tree where we were
Sup[F]posed to [G]meet in[C]stead,
I [Em]found this [Am]letter[F],
And [G]this is what it [C]sa[F]id.[C]
{c: Chorus}
If you [F]get there be[G]fore I [C]do,
[F]Don't give [G]up on [C]me.
I'll [F]meet you when my [G]chores are [Am]through.
[Dm]I don't know how long I'll [G]be.
But I'm [F]not going to [G]let you [C]down,
[F]Darling, [G]wait and [Am]see.
And [F]between now and [G]then,
'Til I [E]see you [Am]again,
I'll be [F]loving you[G].
Love, [C]Me.
I read those words just hours before,
My grandma passed away,
In the doorway of the church,
Where me and grandpa stopped to pray.
I know I'd never seen him cry,
In all my fifteen years.
But as he said these words to her,
His eyes filled up with tears.
{c: Chorus (repeat last line) }

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official RAYE COLLIN tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
