MEMORY
C/                            Am/
Midnight, not a sound on the pavement
                     F/                     Em/
Has the moon lost a memory? She is smiling alone
        Dm/                     Am/         
In the lamplight the withered leaves collect at my feet
         G/             C/
And the wind begins to moan

 C/                       Am/
Memory, all alone in the moonlight
                   F/
I can smile at the old days
                Em/
I was beautiful then
    Dm/                           Am/
I remember the time I knew what happiness was
        G/           C/
Let the memory live again

*Em     F/           Em      F/
Every street lamp seems to beat 
    Em        C /     G /
A fainter listening warning
Em     Em/            D        D/
Someone mutters and a street lamp flutters
    Em   Em/    A  A/     D  D/  
And soon it will be morning

C/                         Am/ 
Daylight, I must wait for the sunrise
                  F/
I must think of a new life
                   Em/
And I mustn't give in
         Dm/                            Am/
When the dawn comes tonight will be a memory too
       G/           C/
And a new day will begin


*Em     F/           Em      F/
Burnt out ends of smokey days
    Em          C/       G/
The stale cold smell of morning
Em /                             D /                
A street lamp dies another night is over
Em/      A/      D/
Another day is dawning


C/                          Am/
Touch me, it's so easy to leave me
                   F/                 
All alone with the memory
                   Em/
Of my days in the sun
       Dm/                              Am/
If you touch me you'll understand what happiness is
G/                  C/
Look, a new day has begun
