Alright, here's a new song we're gonna do for you that we [B] created especially for this live album that we're doing here [C] tonight.
[F]
[C] [F] [C] I guess I owe the [G] neighbors an [C] explanation
About [F] [C] [C] the noise coming [G] from this old house [C] and me
But this feeling, it takes hold of me
And [F] though I fight it, [Bb] it takes control of [Fm] me
[C] That's why I'm here tonight
[G] In memory [C] of a memory
[F] [C] See [G]
[C] that backyard?
[G] That's where my babies [C] used to play
See that window?
[G] That's the bedroom where [C] we used to lay
Oh sure, you think I'm crazy
And [F] hell, I [Fm] just might be
[C] But that's for tonight
[G] I'm here in memory [C] of a memory
[F] So go back to sleep and [Fm] don't worry about me
[C] Out here in this night air, all alone
I'll [D] be leaving soon, soon as I check each room
Cause [G] it's still my [F] home, [Em] it's still
[Dm]
[F] Yes I'll go, water the flowers [C] like she asked me to
[F] Oh we [C] shot up a derby, [F]
way [C] back then
When [G] she asked me to
[G] This [C] bottle, it got a hold of me
[F] And though I fought it, [Fm] it took control of me
That's [C] why I'm here tonight
[G] In memory of [Em] a memory
[C] [F] [C] [F] [C] [F] [Dm] [C]
