On a cool grey morning, I watched with my own eyes
C D C
As he headed out the driveway and finally out of my life
G C G Bm C
Oh, I knew he'd soon be miles from my mind
Em C D G
So why should tears start falling after all this time
CHORUS:
Em Bm
How can a memory last this long
C G
Will he ever go away
Em Bm
Even the stars burn out and fall
C Am
Will he ever go away
G C G Am
How can someone who left so long ago
G C
Still be here with me today
D G
Will he ever go away
INSTRUMENTAL: G Em Bm C G Em Bm C G
C G C
Shouldn't I start living my life for myself
D C
Shouldn't it be easy to fall in love with someone else
G C G Bm C
Oh, why should it be his touch I feel in the dark
Em C D G
And will his voice always echo through my heart
CHORUS:
Em Bm
How can a memory last this long
C G
Will he ever go away
Em Bm
Even the stars burn out and fall
C Am
Will he ever go away
G C G Am
How can someone who left so long ago
G C
Still be here with me today
D G
Will he ever go away
OUTRO: G Em Bm
