	        E7  A             A4/7      A7 A7/9 D   F#m          D6 
My world is like a  river, as dark    as it is deep 
E   Cdim     E7  D9  Fdim Cdim  E7     Fdim    E7 Bm5-/7 A 
Night after night the past slips in and gathers all my  sleep 
E7  A              A4/7      A7  A7/9  A7  D   F#m     D6 
My days are just an end - ess stream of emptiness to me 
B7     D   D7M D6  A        F#m     D9     Dm6  Fdim A 
Filled only by the fleeting moments of her memory 
E7  E7    A   A  C#7   C#7  F#m  B7  
Sweet   memories,     sweet memories 
  A   F#m   D9    E7    A   
M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-mm. 
E7  A               A4/7       A7 A7/9 A7   D      F#m       D6 
She slipped into the  silence of  my dreams again last night 
E   Cdim        E7  D9 Fdim Cdim   E7 Fdim E7 Bm5-/7  A 
Wandering from room to room, she's turning on each light 
E7   A                  A4/7     A7 A7/9  A7  D   F#m  D6 
Her laughter spills like water from the river to the sea 
B7       D        D7M D6   A     F#m      D9     Dm6 Fdim  A 
And I'm swept away from sadness, clinging to her memory 
E7  E7    A   A  C#7   C#7  F#m  B7  
Sweet   memories,     sweet memories 
  A F#m   D9   D6/9   E7   E4/7 F Dm6 A  
M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-mm.
