Chords with lyrics

Sweet Memories

BB         B7B7    E MajorE
My world is like a river, as dark as it is deep
F#F#                            BB
Night after night the past slips in and gathers all my sleep
          B7B7         E MajorE
My days are just an endless stream of emptiness to me
          BB        F#F#     BB
Filled only by the fleeting moments of her memory

F#F#    BB
Sweet memories
Eb MajorEb    AbmAbm C#7C#7 BB F#F# BB
Sweet memorie-es

She slipped into the silence of my dreams last night
Wandering from room to room, she's turning on each light
Her laughter spills like water from a river to the sea
I'm swept away from sadness, clinging to her memory

Sweet memories
Sweet memories
