Memory - Sarah Brightman
Intro: G Am C
V1
C Am C Am C Am
Midnight, not a sound from the pavement,
C F Am F Em
Has the moon lost her memory, she is smiling alone;
G G7 F Am C
In the lamplight the withered leaves collect at my feet,
G Am C
And the wind, begins to moan.
V2
C Am C Am C F
Memory, all alone in the moonlight, I can smile at the old days,
Am F Em G G7 F Am C
Life was beautiful then; I remember the time I knew what happiness was,
G Am C
Let the memory, live again.
Chorus 1
Em CM7 Em CM7 G C G
Every street lamp seems to beat, a fa….talistic warning,
Em D G A D D7
Someone mutters, a street lamp flutters, and soon it will be morning.
V3
C Am C Am C F
Daylight, I must wait for the sunrise, I must think of a new life,
Am F Em G G7 F Am C
And I mustn't give in; when the dawn comes tonight will be a memory too,
G Am C
And a new life will begin.
Chorus 2

Burnt out ends of smokey days, the stale cold smell of morning,

A street lamp dies, another night is over, ano..ther day is daw..ning.
V4

Touch me, it’s so easy to leave me, all alone with my memory,
Cm Ab Gm Bb Ab7 Ab Cm Eb
Of my days in the sun; if you touch me you’ll understand what happiness is,
G G7 Am F C
Look, a new day, has be…gun ... (Slowing)
