 C majorC        E7E7
You are still my boy
FF          A7A7
Even though you're gone now
 DmDm      A7A7        DmDm  G+G
We have your memories lingerin' on
    FF          B7B7
Boyish laughter rings out clear
    C majorC         A7A7
And it seems you must be near
 D7D7          Dm7Dm7
Footsteps sound and I look around
    G9G9       Gaug9
And I look to see if you are here

 C majorC         E7E7
You still claim a part
     FF        A7b9A7b9  A7A7
Of that hopeful place I call my heart
 DmDm      A7A7      DmDm   G+G
Hopeless is a word I never learned
      FF          B7B7
Though my head knows what is true
      C majorC           A7A7
That we've seen the very last of you
  D7D7           Dm7Dm7
My heart won't listen, it just keeps missin'
   G+G       Gaug7Gaug7
That lovin' boy that it once knew


 C majorC        E7E7
You will always be
         FF
You will always be
         A7b9A7b9  A7A7
Somewhere deep inside of me
  DmDm       A7A7
I know it, yes I know it
    DmDm   G+G
I can feel it

   BRIDGE:

   A minorAm              E7E7
   I ain't no prophet claimin' doom now
                  A minorAm
   Somehow I never learned the knack
   C majorC              E7E7
   You got a boy, you give him room now
            DmDm              G+G  Gaug7Gaug7
   And then there's nothin' ever gonna bring him back, oh


 C majorC    E7E7
You are still my boy
    FF             A7b9A7b9 A7A7
Even though, even though you're gone now
DmDm      A7A7        DmDm
I hear your laughter lingerin' on
           G+G
I hear it, yes it's true
    FF       B7B7
And no matter what I do
      C majorC             A7A7
No matter where, no matter where I'm goin' to
   DmDm       G+G
I'll always have my memories
   E minorEm       A7A7
I'll always have my memories
   DmDm       G+G      FF
I'll always have my memories of you
  C majorC
