Memory, from Cats (by Andrew Lloyd Webber) As performed on the London Cast Recording, circa 1981

^BbMidnight, not a sound on the p^Gmavement Has the moon lost a m^D#emory? She is smiling ^Dmalone In the l^Cmamplight the withered leaves c^Gmollect at my feet And the w^Find begins to m^Bboan

M^Bbemory, all alone in the ^Gmmoonlight I can smile at the ^D#old days I was beautiful ^Dmthen I re^Cmmember the time I knew what h^Gmappiness was Let the ^Fmemory live ^Bbagain

^DmEvery s^D#treet lamp ^Dmseems to b^D#eat A fa^Dmtalis^Bbtic w^Farning ^DmSomeone m^Gutters and a ^Cstreet lamp ^Amflutters And ^Dmsoon it ^Fwill be ^Cmorning

^BbDaylight, I must wait for ^Gmthe sunrise I must think of a ^D#new life And I mustn't give ^Dmin When the ^Cmdawn comes tonight will be a m^Gmemory too And a n^Few day will ^Bbbegin
