Willie Nelson - Local memory

^EThe lights go out each evening at eleve^An ^EAnd up and down our block there's not a sou^And ^EI close my eyes and search for peaceful slum^Aber ^DAnd just then the local me^Emory comes around^{A D}Piles of blues against the door To make sure ^Asleep will come no more ^AHe's the hardest working memory in this t^Eown ^DTurns out happiness again And then lets lonel^Ainess back in ^DAnd each night the local me^Emory comes around^A

^EEach day I say tonight I may escape hi^Am ^EI pretend I'm happy and never even a fro^Awn ^EBut at night I close my eyes and pray sleep f^Ainds me ^DBut again the local me^Emory comes around^{A D}Rids the house of all good news Then sets ^Aout my crying shoes ^AWhat a faithful memory never lets me do^Ewn ^DWe're both up till light of day Chasing happiness ^Aaway ^DAnd each night the local m^Eemory comes around^{A D}And each night the local m^Eemory comes around^A
