Intro: C (Four times)
C Am
Midnight, not a sound from the pavement
F Em
Has the moon lost her memory, she is smiling alone
G C
In the lamplight, the withered leaves, collected my fee
G C
And the wind begins to moan.
C Am
Memory, all alone in the moonlight
Am F Em
I can smile at the old days, it was beautiful then
Em G C
I remember the time I knew what happiness was
G C
Let the memory live again.
C Am
Daylight, I must wait for the sunrise
Am F Em
I must think of a new life, and I mustn't give in
Em G C
When the dawn comes, tonight will be a memory, too
G C Em
And a new day will begin. Burnt out ends of smoky days,
Em C G Em
The stale cold smell of morning the street lamp dies,
Em C G
Another night is over, another day is dawning
C Am
Touch me, it's so easy to leave me,
Am F Em
All alone with the memory of my day in the sun
Em G C
If you touch me, you'll understand what happiness is
G C
Look a new day, has begun
C Am
Memory, all alone in the moonlight
Am F Em
I can smile at the old days, it was beautiful then
Em G C
I remember the time I knew what happiness was
G C
Let the memory live again
