Intro: C7M  Gm7(b5)  C7/9+  Fm7

Well you ladies out there
you know what I'm
I'm talkin' 'bout ya
but you wanna know something?
did you ever try to remember or
or just place up a memory in your mind
and it always seems so far away
so hard to find

Ab7M      C#/Ab
Memories light the corners of my mind
      C7          Fm7     Eb7 C#7M
misty water-color memories
       Eb7    Ab7M  C#/Ab
of the way we were
            Ab7M   C#/Ab
Scattered pictures
                 Fm7    Fm/Eb C#7M
of the smiles we left behind
          C7          Fm7     Eb7
smiles we gave to one another

Memories may be beautiful

What?s too painful to remember
           C7        Fm7  Eb7 C#7
We simply choose to forget
                  Cm7
Although it's so  nice so

We choose so to remember
