Sweet Memories chords

Key:

  			G 
My world is like a river  

C 
As dark as it is deep 

D7 
Night after night the past slips in 

                   G 
And gathers all my sleep 

  
                               
My days are just an endless stream 

C 
Of emptiness to me 

                   G 
Filled only by the fleeting 
  
        D7         G 
Moments of your memory 

D7        G     B7        Em 
Sweet memories  sweet memories 

  
G 
You slipped into the silence 
   
C 
Of my dreams last night 

D7 
Wandering from room to room 

                    G 
And turning on each light 

  
  
Your laughter spills like water 

         C 
From the river to the sea 

                        G 
And I'm swept away from sadness 

         D7         G 
Clinging to your memory 

D7        G     B7        Em 
Sweet memories  sweet memories 


G               D7              G 
Memories of the sweetest love I know
