C                   F          C 
A mayor gave me the key to the city 
    D7                     G7 
The welcome wagons already appear 
    C             F           C 
But again I'll be packing and leaving 
                   F                   C 
For it's plain now that she once lived here 

          G7                      C 
I see her face in the cool of the evening 
           G7                            F 
I hear her voice in each breeze loud and clear 
   C               F            C 
Oh there must be a town without memories 
                 F                  C 
But not this one for she once lived here 

                    F            C 
It may be that I'll never forget her 
                     D7              G7 
Cause she's love and love lives everywhere 
      C               F         C 
Could it be that I'll always be saying 
                      F              C 
I've gotta go now for she once lived here 

repeat #2 
                 F                  C 
But not this one for she once lived here
