Souvenirs
Composed by Jim Steinman
From "Braver Than We Are." Every time you see a G7 with an astrix next to it, the following single-note
melody is played: F# to D#, F to D. This is normally played in the bass, but the horns occasionally play
a variation thereof too!
[Intro]

[Verse 1]
C G F C
Baby I think it’s over, the end is finally near.
C G F C
Don’t wanna talk about it anymore, I see it all so clear.
Am G F G7 * G7 *
So pack your bags and move on out, there ain’t nothing for you here
C G F C C
I think you know it’s over too, so why not disappear?
C G F C
Wait a minute baby, what’s that you say? You really don’t think it’s fair
C G F C
To send you outside into the cold, cold night? Oh you poor, poor girl, well I don’t really care.
Am G F G7 * G7 *
Coz you’ve been cold to me so long I’m crying icicles instead of tears.
C G F C C C C
So pack your bags and move on out, there ain’t nothing for you here
[Sax Solo]
C | G | F | C
C | G | F | C
Am | G | F | G | G
C | G | F | C
[Verse 2]
C G F C
Baby I know it’s over, I got a last idea
C G F C
Don’t wanna leave you empty handed, well I agree that wouldn’t be fair.
Am G F G7 * G7 *
So take along a little something to remember me by, a little something to show that I care
[Chorus]
C F C F
|: Step right up you poor little girl, step right up you poor little girl,
C F F G7 G7
Step right up you poor little girl, and take your Souvenirs. :|
C G F C C
Step right up you poor, poor girl, and take your Souvenirs.
[Verse 3]
C Dm F Am
Take my heart; drain it dry.
C7 F Dm G
I don’t blame you now, coz I know you really tried.
C Dm F Am
Take my soul; you can have my mind
C7 F Dm G C C
But you’re never gonna get your hands on my love, coz it’s mine, mine, all mine.
C Dm F Am
Take my master; you can have my slave.
C7 F Dm G
When I’m dead and buried alive, you can always take my grave.
C Dm F Am
Take my body; well I know you really think it’s fine
C7 F Dm G C C
But you’re never gonna get your hands on my love, because it’s mine, mine, all mine.

What are the odds; or do I win or lose?
Dm C/E F Ab G7 G7 G7 G7
Please sir, by the way, sir, may I be excused?
[Verse 4]
C Dm F Am
Take my sorrow; I’m running out of joy.
C7 F Dm G
When you’re tired of playing with yourself, you can always take my toys.
C Dm F Am
Take my baby; show her a real good time
C7 F Dm G
You always were a super dad, but as a lover you were less than fine.
C Dm F Am
Take my jewels, well I know you love to see them shine.
C7 F Dm G C C
But you’re never gonna get your hands on my love, because it’s mine, mine, all mine.
