_ _ This is the road I used to walk to go to primary school.
This is the farm that I stayed on with my mum, dad and my two brothers.
And at that time my grandmother lived with us.
It brings back so many different memories for me.
[E] And this is the place I got the inspiration to write Childhood Memories. _ _

This night I lay me down to sleep.
I pray the Lord [B] my soul to keep.
This prayer I still remember. _
Though it's been so [E] many _ years.
If I should die before I wake,
I pray the Lord [B] my soul to take.
These words would bring me comfort _
and would drive away [E] my fears.
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ Childhood [B] memories of [E] happy days gone _ by.
Of [B] games that you and I _ would _ [E] sometimes play. _
_ _ _ _ [A] And looking back [B] I think about [E] what might have been.
_ But in [B] my heart I know it's just a [E] childhood _ dream.
_ _ _ _ _ Building castles on the sand.
We ran together [B] hand in hand.
_ And everything we used to do [E] together. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ Running, laughing in the snow.
_ Back in those [B] days we didn't know
that in time we'd grow apart _ [E] from one another. _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ Childhood [B] memories of [E] happy days gone by.
Of [B] games that you and I _
would _ [E] sometimes _ play.
_ _ [Ab] _ _ [A] And looking back [B] I think about [E] what might have been.
But in [B] my heart I know it's just a [E] childhood dream. _
