Intro: C F G x2

Verse:

CThe (x32010@1)checkered floor was checkered no more
F (133211@1)                              GThey (320003@1)tore out the floors and the ceiling
CAnd (x32010@1)the place has a stale smell of old memories
F (133211@1)                                GAnd (320003@1)the fixtures are there for the stealing

Chorus:

Am (x02210@1)                       FBut (133211@1)who wants to buy these memories now
       C (x32010@1)                         GWith (320003@1)a sweetness like candy that's cotton
Am (x02210@1)                       FWho (133211@1)wants yesterday's news today
     C (x32010@1)         GGone (320003@1)once, gone twice
     CGone (x32010@1)forgotten

C F G x2

There's a dirty old mattress full of stains and burns
And each one tells a story
And it's been through bed-wetting and a couple of weddings
Through nightmares and wet dreams of glory

But who wants to buy these memories now
With a sweetness like candy that's cotton
Who wants yesterday's news today
Gone once, gone twice

     CGone (x32010@1)forgotten
     F (133211@1)    GGone (320003@1)forgotten
     CGone (x32010@1)forgotten
     F (133211@1)    G (320003@1)I gotta walk away from these dirty old shoes
They've been in too many places
But I'm hung out to dry by my laces

But who wants to buy these memories now
With a sweetness like candy that's cotton
Who wants yesterday's news today
Gone once, gone twice
G (320003@1)                    CGone, (x32010@1)gone, gone, gone forgotten

Outro:

C (x32010@1)  F (133211@1)    GGone (320003@1)forgotten
     CGone (x32010@1)forgotten
