A 
We laid down outside Memphis 
                        D 
Drawing patterns on the moon 
E 
Our sleeping bags were all we had 
                 A 
To keep away the dew 
 
I could not help but wonder 
A7                  D     
If I could hold you tight 
           E 
Since that evening chill 
 
I long to hold you still 
                            A 
Haven't seen you since that night 
               D 
But I close my eyes  
           A 
And I feel fine 
                  E           A   A7 
Cause dreams come true by and by 
           D 
I love you only 
              A 
But I'm never lonely 
                    E 
Cause you're always there 
                A 
When I close my eyes 
 
For a time my life was easy 
                         D 
Cause I always seemed to know 
              E  
One day you'd think of me 
 
And finally see 
                     A 
How much I loved you so 
 
But one cool October evening 
A7                D 
Outside the rendezvous 
E 
Through the fog and mist 
 
I saw two lovers kiss 
                             A 
One looked an awful lot like you 
               D 
But I close my eyes  
           A 
And I feel fine 
                  E           A   A7 
Cause dreams come true by and by 
           D 
I love you only 
              A 
But I'm never lonely 
                    E 
Cause you're always there 
                A 
When I close my eyes 
 
SOLO 
 
A 
As the rain hits my windshield 
                    D 
It get louder every timee 
E 
I cannot see 
 
Ahead of me 
                    A 
As clear as I see behind 
A 
I'm racing out of Memphis 
A7                D 
Hard and fast and blind 
E 
I Remember when 
 
I was your only friend 
                               A 
Now I'm the last thing on your mind 
               D 
But I close my eyes  
           A 
And I feel fine 
                  E           A   A7 
Cause dreams come true by and by 
           D 
I love you only 
              A 
But I'm never lonely 
                    E 
Cause you're always there 
                A 
When I close my eyes
