A Memorys Lament chords by Reuben And The Dark

I love acoustic renditions of this song. It can be plucked with the given chords or just simply strummed. Make
sure you get your friends to harmonize with you!

**CAPO ON 5**

VERSE:

C                      G            C

I wrote a song for the ones that I remember

  C          G             F             C

A memory's lament, all the lovers I have met

     C                           G             C

Well I wrote a song for the the ones that I forget

               F           C           E             Am

And take these dreams from me, I don't need an easy way, now...

              F          Am    E

They're just dragging my body around.


CHORUS:

        F         C

Well I, buried my Brother, I

F            C

   Buried my lover, I

F            C           G

   Buried my head in my hands.

             F           C

And you said,  all of my burdens are

F              C

   Too much to bear, and your

F                   C

Fingers through my hair

  G                           G

I wanted you to stay with me.


VERSE:

C                 F           C

You come from the forest I bet.

     C                 F      C

With hair as long as a sunset

C                 F           C

You come from the forest I bet.

       C                 F         C

With a soul as good as a hunter's guess.

          F              C

And I was, younger than you

           E                    Am

Well I saw through these wicked ways.

F                    C           E

  Another bill that time will...    pay

CHORUS:

     F          C

Oh I, buried my Brother, I

F            C

   Buried my lover, I

F            C           G

   Buried my head in my hands.

             F           C

And you said,  all of my burdens are

F              C

   Too much to bear, and your

F                   C

Fingers through my hair

  G

I wanted you to stay with me.

G

Who knew you'd be leaving me for...

F         C

Buried my Brother, I

F            C

   Buried my lover, I

F            C           G

   Buried my head in my hands.

             F           C

And you said,  all of my burdens are

F              C

   Too much to bear, and your

F                   C

Fingers through my hair

  G

I wanted you to stay with me.

G                                 Am
