Memories Chords

Capo: 4th fret

[Intro]
 
One, two
 
 
[Verse 1]
     G
It's been a couple months
Bm                Em
That's just about enough time
D              C                                G
For me to stop cryin' when I look at all the pictures
                   Am                         D
Now I kinda smile, I haven't felt that in a while
     G
It's late, I hear the door
Bm                   Em
Bell ringin' and it's pourin'
D              C                                G
I open up that door, see your brown eyes at the entrance
 
You just wanna talk and
Am                D
I can't turn away a wet dog
 
 
[Pre-Chorus]
    G            Bm            Em
But please don't ruin this for me
D                    C                G
Please don't make it harder than it already is
    Am7            D
I'm trying to get over this
 
 
[Chorus]
G                       D
  I wish that you would stay in my memories
Em                  D
  But you show up today just to ruin things
C                      Em
I wanna put you in the past 'cause I'm traumatized
Am7                          D
But you're not lettin' me do that 'cause tonight
           G                                 D
You're all drunk in my kitchen curled in the fetal position
         Em                       D
Too busy playin' the victim to be listenin' to me
          C                       Em
When I say "I wish that you would stay in my memories"
Am7             D
In my memories, stay in my memories
 
 
[Verse 2]
    G                     Bm                   Em
Now I can't say "Goodbye" if you stay here the whole night
D                            C
You see it's hard to find an end to somethin' that you keep beginning
G
Over and over again
Am                        D
I promise that the ending always stays the same
           G                 Bm                  Em             D
So there's no good reason to make believin' that we could ever exist again
                C
I can't be your friend, can't be your lover
             G                                              Am
Can't be the reason we hold back each other from falling in love
              D
With somebody other than me
 
 
[Chorus]
G                       D
  I wish that you would stay in my memories
Em                  D
  But you show up today just to ruin things
C                      Em
I wanna put you in the past 'cause I'm traumatized
Am7                          D
But you're not lettin' me do that 'cause tonight
           G                                 D
You're all drunk in my kitchen curled in the fetal position
         Em                       D
Too busy playin' the victim to be listenin' to me
          C                       Em
When I say "I wish that you would stay in my memories"
Am7             D
In my memories, stay in my memories
 
 
[Bridge]
C          Cm
Since you came
  G                   B
I guess I'll let you stay
       C           Cm
For as long as it takes
             G               D/F#
To grab your books and your coat
          Em         D
And that one good cologne
          B7                  C
That you bought when we were fighting
             G           D/F#          Em           D
'Cause it's still on my clothes, everything that I own
        B7                 C
And it makes me feel like dying
      B               C
I was barely just surviving
 
 
[Chorus]
G                       D
  I wish that you would stay in my memories
Em                  D
  But you show up today just to ruin things
C                      Em
I wanna put you in the past 'cause I'm traumatized
Am7                          D
But you're not lettin' me do that 'cause tonight
           G                                 D
You're all drunk in my kitchen curled in the fetal position
         Em                       D
Too busy playin' the victim to be listenin' to me
          C                       Em
When I say "I wish that you would stay in my memories"
Am7             D
In my memories, stay in my memories
