So, every day I see you in some other face

They crack a smile, talk a while and try to take your place
C Fmaj7 C | Fmaj7 |
Mmmmh, my memory serves me far too well
[Verse 2]

I just sit here on this mountain thinking to myself

My memory serves me far too well

The years will come and go

Some of us will change our lives, some of us still have nothing to show

Nothing baby ... but memories
[Bridge]
G F
And if these wounds, they are self-inflicted

If you will not share the blame

Come back, come back, come back, come back
(Do, do, do, do ...)

Until you say you will, don't you keep me waiting for that day
