1997 UMG Records, Inc.


Capo 3

D MajorD          A augmentedA    E minorEm  G+G
It's midnight and music is playing
     D MajorD     A augmentedA     G+G
It's the same old song every night
D MajorD        A augmentedA     E minorEm  G+G
The melody is made out of memories
D MajorD         A augmentedA     G+G
The words you and I used to write
D MajorD     A augmentedA       E minorEm   G+G
I paid the band when you left me
D MajorD     A augmentedA       G+G
Expecting they'd pack it in
D MajorD         A augmentedA    E minorEm  G+G
But heartache's a stubborn musician
     D MajorD     A augmentedA        G+G
And it's playing a waltz that won't end

Chorus
A augmentedA           G+G
And I can't help but remember you
    D MajorD       A augmentedA
Morning high midnight low
A7A7                G+G
I don't want to dance with your memory
  D MajorD            A augmentedA
But somehow I can't let you go
A7A7      G+G      D MajorD  A augmentedA E minorEm G+G D MajorD A augmentedA G+G
The band is playing too slow

D MajorD        A augmentedA     E minorEm  G+G
Now I've got to find a new partner
D MajorD    A augmentedA       G+G
And get on with my life
     D MajorD     A augmentedA     E minorEm     G+G
But these dreams of moonlight dances with you are still
 D MajorD
sweet
   A augmentedA      G+G
If a little off time

A augmentedA            G+G
And I can't help but remember you
    D MajorD       A augmentedA
Morning high midnight low
  A7A7               G+G
I don't want to dance with your memory
  D MajorD            A augmentedA
But somehow I can't let you go
  A7A7    G+G      D MajorD  A augmentedA E minorEm G+G D MajorD A augmentedA  G+G    D MajorD
The band is playing too slow
