Intro: (D) (D) (C) (D) (C) (G) 

(G) All I can be is a sweet memory
That (C) drifts through your mind from time to (G) time
I can (D) never be more than a knock on your door
Just a (C) shadow that's gone with the (D) sunshine
For you (G) know I'm not free and I never can be
And you're (C) bound to get restless in (G) time
(D7) All I can be is a sweet memory
That (C) drifts (D) through your (G) mind

   Ton(D7)ight I'll share the silence while (G) lying here with you
   (D7) Sands of time have trickled down to (G) just a precious few
   You're young and so beautiful and (C) I'm so glad that I'm (A7) here
   But the (A7) ending is painfully (D7) clear

All I can be is a sweet memory
Of someone you had to leave behind
Who loves you and needs you but never could give you
A ring for your finger so fine
So tonight we'll just borrow each other
Tomorrow we'll find we've run out of time
All I can be is a sweet memory
That drifts through your mind

(SOLO)

For you (G) know I'm not free and I never can be
And you're (C) bound to get restless in (G) time
(D7) All I can be is a sweet memory
That (C) drifts (D) through your (G) mind
All I can be is a sweet memory
That (C) drifts (D) through your (G) mind
