Memory

[Bb] Midnight, not a sound from the [Gm] pavement
Has the moon lost her [Eb] memory she is smiling [Dm] alone
In the [F] lamplight the [Eb] withered leaves co-[Gm] llect at my feet
And the [F] wind .. begins to [Bb] moan

[Bb] Memory, all alone in the [Gm] moonlight
I can dream of the [Eb] old days life was beautiful [Dm] then
I re-[F] member the [Eb] time I knew what [Gm] happiness was
Let the [F] memory … live a-[Bb] gain

[Dm] Every street lamp seems to beat
A [F] fainter [Bb] listening [F] warning
[Dm] Someone mut-[Gm] ters and the [C] street lamp sput-[F] ters
And [Dm] Soon it [G] will be [C] morning

[Bb] Daylight I must wait for the [Gm] sunrise
I must think of a [Eb] new life and I mustn’t give [Dm] in
When the [F] dawn comes [Eb] tonight will be a [Gm] memory too
And a [F] new day will [Bb] begin

[Bbm] Burnt out ends of smoky days
[Db] The stale court [F#] smell of [Db] morning
[Bbm] A street lamp dies another [Ab] night
is over [Db] another [Eb] day is [Ab] dawning

[Db] Touch me It is so easy to [Bbm] leave me
All alone with the [F#] memory of my days in the [Fm] sun
If you’ll [Ab] touch me you’ll [Ebm] understand what [Bbm] happiness is
Look, a [Ab] new day has [Db] begun
