Selective Memories chords by Bear’s Den
Guitar chords with lyrics
Intro:
E C#m F#m A
Verse 1:
E
Last night Beth asked how you're getting on
C#m
I said you're doing good
F#m
But some of you has left
A
And some of you is still here
E
I said it first just as a joke
C#m
But beneath all of the mirrors and smoke
F#m A
Sometimes I think your memory is selective
E
It just seems beyond convenient
C#m
Which parts are disappearing when
F#m
The times you can't remember
A
I can't forget
E
Maybe that's a kindness though
C#m
A beauty in the growing old
F#m
That for some
A
Our own memories forgive us
Pre-Chorus:
B E A C#m
Well, it's all that I could wish for you
A C#m B A
It's all that I could ever wish for you
E
That those memories just fade away
Interlude:
C#m F#m A
Verse 2:
E
I reminded you just yesterday
C#m
That I have a daughter on the way
F#m
And your eyes lit up
A
And for a moment the clouds were lifted
E
I hope that when you meet her too
C#m
It's one of those days that stays with you
F#m A
I hope she meets the person that I once knew
E
As she gets older, yeah I'm sure
C#m
She'll ask about you more and more
F#m
And I'll tell her you were my best friend
A E
And I'll let some of my memories slip away
Interlude:
C#m F#m A
Bridge:
B E A C#m
It's all that I could wish for you
A C#m B A
It's all that I could ever wish for you
B E A C#m
It's all that I could wish for you
A C#m B A
It's all that I could ever wish for you
C#m B A
That I could ever wish for you
C#m B A
That I could ever wish for you
E
That those memories just fade away
