Capo 3

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

Chorus
A                     G
And I can't help but remember you
        D             A
Morning high midnight low
A7                                G
I don't want to dance with your memory
    D                        A
But somehow I can't let you go
A7            G           D   A  Em G  D  A  G
The band is playing too slow

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

A                        G
And I can't help but remember you
        D              A
Morning high midnight low
   A7                             G
I don't want to dance with your memory
    D                        A
But somehow I can't let you go
    A7        G           D   A  Em  G  D  A   G        D
The band is playing too slow
