Memory

Bb
Midnight
                     Gm
Not a sound from the pavement
                      Eb
Has the moon lost her memory?
                Dm
She is smiling alone
       Cm                               Gm
In the lamplight the withered leaves collect at my feet
        F
And the wind
  Eb      Bb
Begins to moan


Bb
Memory
                 Gm
All alone in the moonlight
                   Eb
I can dream of the old days
                   Dm
Life was beautiful then
    Cm                          Gm
I remember the time I knew what happiness was
        F
Let the memory
Eb    Bb
Live again


Dm    Cm
Every streetlamp
Dm       Cm
Seems to beat
  Dm  Bb C   F  F7
A fatalistic warning
Dm      Gm7
Someone mutters

        C7         F7
And the streetlamp sputters
    Dm      G7      C
And soon it will be morning


Bb
Daylight
                    Gm
I must wait for the sunrise
                  Eb
I must think of a new life
                   Dm
And I mustn't give in
         Cm
When the dawn comes

                  Gm
Tonight will be a memory, too
      F
And a new day
Eb     Bb
Will begin

Bbm       Abm
Burnt out ends
   Bbm   Abm
Of smoky days
    Bbm        Gb    Ab Db Db7
The still cold smell of morning
  Bbm        Ebm7
A streetlamp dies
        Ab7      Db7
Another night is over
 Bbm    Eb7    Ab
Another day is dawning


Db
Touch me

                 Bbm
It' s so easy to leave me
                   Gb
All alone with the memory
                  Fm
Of my days in the sun
       Ebm
If you touch me
                       Bbm
You'll understand what happiness is
        Ab
Look, a new day
Gb    Db
Has begun
