G D7
I was doing fine until I saw her yesterday
G
I glanced up as she went walking by
C
I had to turn my head and look the other way
G D7 G
For an old memo-ry got in my eye
D7
Time was slowly healing all the heartaches she caused me
G
I could hear her name and still not cry
C
But yesterday the heartaches all started once again
G D7 G
When an old memo-ry got in my eye
A7 D7 G
An old memo-ry just stepped on me
A7 D7
And walked on by like she had never known me
G D7
At first I thought I couldn't stop my loving her
G
But I convinced myself I'd have to try
C
I think I might have made it in another day or so
G D7 G
But an old memo-ry got in my eye
A7 D7 G
An old memo-ry just stepped on me
A7 D7
And walked on by like she had never known me
G D7
At first I thought I couldn't stop my loving her
G
But I convinced myself I'd have to try
C
I think I might have made it in another day or so
G D7 G
But an old memo-ry got in my eye
C G D7 G
Yes an old memo-ry got in my eye
