  			C                     F          C 
The Mayor gave me the key to the city 

            Am        D7      G7 
The welcome wagon had already appeared 

C                 F           C       Am 
But again I'll be packing and leaving 

         C              F              C 
For it's plain now that you once lived here 


                    F        C 
It may be that I'll never forget you 

           Am       D7              G7 
Cause your love and love lives everywhere 

C                     F         C      Am 
Could it be that I'll always be saying 

           C          F              C 
I've gotta go now for you once lived here 


           G7                      C 
I see your face in the cool of the evening 

            G7                            F 
I hear your voice in each breeze loud and clear 

C                  F                 C        Am 
Oh there must be a town without your memories 

        C              F              C 
But not this one cause you once lived here 

                      F              C 
No not this one cause you once lived here
