3/4 time, Capo on 2
Intro: [E] - [A]
[A] Here in my closet
just an old box for [D] shoes
that's where I [E] hide my
memories of [A] you
[A] Late every evenin'
when there's no one [D] around
seems I can't help my [E] self
always reach to that shelf
and take your memory [A] down
CHORUS:
[A] And I'm holdin' on
to my memories of [D] you
now that you're [E] gone
what more can I [A] do?
[A] I've lost about all
that I've had to [D] loose
So you can't take a [E] way
my memories of [A] you
[A] I stare at your picture
in that old broken [D] frame
and I hold in my [E] hands
your gold wedding [A] ring
[A] That letter you wrote me
I read to the [D] end
still after so [E] long
seems all that I want
is to hold you [A] again
REPEAT CHORUS:
[A] no you can't take a [Bm] way [C#m]
my memories of [A] you
