Sweet Memories
Words & Music by Mickey Newberry
Recorded by Andy Williams, 1982
E7 A A7sus4 A7 A7/9 D F#m D6
My world is like a riv - er, as dark as it is deep;
E Cdim E7 D9 Fdim Cdim E7 Fdim E7 Bm7-5 A
Night after night the past slips in and gathers all my sleep.
E7 A A7sus4 A7 A7/9 A7 D F#m D6
My days are just an end - ess stream of emptiness to me,
B7 D DM7 D6 A F#m D9 Dm6 Fdim A
Filled only by the fleeting moments of her mem - o - ry.
|E7| E7 | |A | A |C#7 | C#7| |F#m| B7 |
Sweet---- memories, sweet----- memories-
| A F#m | D9 E7 | A | A |
M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-mm.
E7 A A7sus4 A7 A7/9 A7 D F#m D6
She slipped into the si - lence of my dreams again last night;
E Cdim E7 D9 Fdim Cdim E7 Fdim E7 Bm7-5 A
Wandering from room to room, she's turn - ing on each light.
E7 A A7sus4 A7 A7/9 A7 D F#m D6
Her laughter spills like wat - er from the river to the sea,
B7 D DM7 D6 A F#m D9 Dm6 Fdim A
And I'm swept a - way from sadness, clinging to her mem - o - ry.
|E7| E7 | |A | A |C#7 | C#7| |F#m| B7 |
Sweet---- memories, sweet----- memories-
| A F#m | D9 - D6/9 - E7 - E7sus4 | F | Dm6 | A |
M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-mm.
