Intro:  C   C   F G  F G 

      C 
Every night I go down to this same little joint 
                                              G 
Fill up my glass till I reach the point, past remembering 
          Dm 
Where the music is loud, the conversation is free 
                            G               C 
A dance or two with someone to keep me from remembering 

C 
The fool I've been the hurt I've caused 
The good woman that I loved and lost 
    F                           Fm 
For she's constantly with me in memory 

C             Dm 
I go home but I couldn't sleep 
                       G                       C 
And after hours I'd be walkin' the streets re- membering 
Am                  Dm         G 
A good woman's love is hard to find 
Am                  Dm            F    G 
And my woman's love was just that kind 

C 
And I'm the reason that she's gone today 
                                          G 
I miss her so and the price that I pay is remembering 
  Dm 
I take her to sleep in my dreams every night 
                           G                 C 
Then start all over in the morning light re- membering 

C 
The way it was when she loved me 
Then like a fool how I carelessly 
F                                      Fm 
Broke her heart, then watched my world fall apart 

C                       Dm 
I'd give this world for yesterday 
                 G               C 
Just to have her love me the way I remember 

Dm               G               C 
Just to have her love me the way I remember 

Outro:   F G  F G  C
