Keep a memory of our love dear
E                 B7
Never ever let it stray
A                           E
Why betray the heart you've broken
E         A              E
I'll find happiness some way.

[Verse 1]
E
When I think about you darling
E                        B7
I often hang my head and cry
A                           E
Words just can't explain my feelings
E       B7                E
Just to know I've lived a lie
 
 
[Chorus]
E
Keep a memory of our love dear
E                 B7
Never ever let it stray
A                           E
Why betray the heart you've broken
E         A              E
I'll find happiness some way.

[Verse 2]
E
When our old friends ask about you
E                  B7
Many times I can't reply
A                             E
Just the thought of your name darling
E        B7                E
Makes me wish that I could die.
 
 
[Chorus]
E
Keep a memory of our love dear
E                 B7
Never ever let it stray
A                           E
Why betray the heart you've broken
E         A              E   E E E E
I'll find happiness some way.
