Souvenirs Composed by Jim Steinman From "Braver Than We Are." Every time you see a G7 with an astrix next to it, the following single-note melody is played: F# to D#, F to D. This is normally played in the bass, but the horns occasionally play a variation thereof too! [Intro] C | G | F | C C | G | F | C Am | G7 | F7 | G7 | G7 C | G | F | F [Verse 1]
CBaby I think it’s oGver, F the end is finalCly near. CDon’t wanna talk about it anGymore, F I see it all so clCear. Am G F G7 * G7 * So pack your bags and move on out, there ain’t nothing for you here C I think you know it’s Gover too, so Fwhy not disappear? C C
CWait a minute baby, what’s Gthat you say? You rFeally don’t think it’s fairC To senCd you outside into the Gcold, cold night? Oh you poor,F poor girl, well I Cdon’t really care.
