Standard tuning Capo 3
Verse 1:
G Em
Midnight, not a sound from the pavement
C Bm
Has the moon lost her memory? She is smiling alone.
D C Em
In the lamplight the withered leaves collect at my feet,
D G
And the wind begins to moan.
Verse 2: (Same as verse 1)
Memory
All alone in the moonlight
I can smile at the old days
I was beautiful then
I remember the time I knew what happiness was
Let the memory live again
Bridge? 1:
Bm C Bm C
Every streetlamp seems to beat
Bm G D
A fatalistic warning
Bm Em A D
Someone mutters and a streetlamp sputters
Bm D A
And soon it will be morning
Verse 3: (Also same as Verse 1)
[ Tab from: https://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/a/andrew_lloyd_webber/memory_crd_ver_8.html ]
Daylight
I must wait for the sunrise
I must think of a new life
And I musn't give in
When the dawn comes
Tonight will be a memory too
And a new day will begin
Bridge? 2: (Also same as bridge 1)
Burnt out ends of smoky days
The stale cold smell of morning
The streetlamp dies, another night is over
Another day is dawning
Final Verse: (Change of key, picking up the tempo is suggested)
(A major barre one from capo)
Touch me
(Em barre three from capo)
It's so easy to leave me
(C major barre three from capo)
All alone with the memory
(Am barre five from capo)
Of my days in the sun
F
If you touch me
(C maj bar 3) (Em bar 3)
You'll understand what happiness is
F (A maj bar 1)
Look a new day has begun
The End.
I'm sorry about the final verse. I'm new to this, and I'm not that good with saying what
note chords are when there is a capo and when your fingers are suppose to be barring a
fret but I tried to make it somewhat understandable, haha.
