[Verse 1]
G        C                                G   C
Memories,pressed between the pages of my mind.
G        C                                    G    F
Memories,sweetened through the ages just like wine.
Bb
Quiet thoughts come floating down
    Bb
and settle softly to the ground.
     Bb                              D#
Like golden autumn leaves around my feet.
  D#                     Cm7
I touched them and they burst apart,
      Am    D   G     C     D   G
with sweet memories, sweet memories.
 
[Chorus]
   G
Of holding hands and red bouquets
    Em
and twilights trimmed in purple haze
    Cm7
and laughing eyes and simple ways
    C                Cm7              G
and quiet nights and gentle days with you.
 
[Verse 2]
G          C                                    G   C
Memories, I cling to them and tremble till the dawn.
  G           C                                        G   F
My memories, are all that I have left now that you've gone.
Bb
Moonlit shadows rise and fall
    Bb
and paint your image on the wall.
   Bb                         D#
To comfort me until I fall asleep.
  D#                Cm7
I dream of you and fill my heart,
      Am    D   G     C     D   G
with sweet memories, sweet memories
 
[Chorus]
   G
Of holding hands and red bouquets
    Em
and twilights trimmed in purple haze
    Cm7
and laughing eyes and simple ways,
    C                Cm7              G
and quiet nights and gentle days with you.
 
[Outro]
G         C                                G    C
Memories, sadly fragrant flowers turning brown.
G         C                                G   F
Memories, soft and distant showers coming down.
      G       D   G     D   G      C    D   G
coming down, memories, memories, sweet memories.
