Intro: C   F  C     Dm7  C 

                   G   C 
I remember this town 
                 F       G 
With a love by my side 
      Am            F 
And a peace seldom felt 
                C  
In this day and time 


                    G    C 
And it gets melancholy 
               F      G 
Every now and again 
         Am             F 
When you let your mind go 
                         C  
And it drifts way back when 


               G         C 
Life plays it's tricks 
                  F        G 
Some are cruel, but fair 
    Am      F 
And even a fool can 
                    C     F  C 
Pretend they don't care 

 
             G        Am           F            C 
When there's too many memories for one heart to hold 
       G         Am                   F           C 
Once a future so bright, now seems so distant and cold 
        Am           F             G            C 
And the shadows grow long and your eyes look so old 
                      F            G             C 
When there's too many memories for one heart to hold 


INTERLUDE: C   F  C     Dm7  C 


             G            C 
There are those moments 
                  F        G 
And they just never fade 
         Am           F 
Like the look in his eyes 
                          C     
And the way the light played 


                  G         C 
Love moved in that moment 
                 F         G 
And the angels all cried 
         Am             F 
And they gave you a memory 
                            C  
That you'll have 'til you die 


                 G           C 
Now the lesson you learned 
                     F      G 
And you don't dare forget 
     Am              F 
What makes you grow old 
                         C       F  C 
Is replacing hope with regret  


             G        Am           F            C 
When there's too many memories for one heart to hold 
       G         Am                   F           C 
Once a future so bright, now seems so distant and cold 
        Am           F             G            C 
And the shadows grow long and your eyes look so old 
                      F            G             C 
When there's too many memories for one heart to hold 

 
             G        Am           F            C 
When there's too many memories for one heart to hold 
       G         Am                   F           C 
Once a future so bright, now seems so distant and cold 
        Am           F             G            C 
And the shadows grow long and your eyes look so old 
                      F            G             C 
When there's too many memories for one heart to hold
