Memory Tabulatur von Andrew Lloyd Webber

G
Midnight.
                      Em
Not a sound from the pavement.
                       C
Has the moon lost her memory?
                 B
She is smiling alone.
        D                               Em
In the lamplight the withered leaves collect at my feet
         D              G
and the wind begins to moan.

 G
Memory.
                  Em
All alone in the moonlight.
                    C
I can dream of the old days,
                    B
life was beautiful then.
     D                            Em  
I remember the time I knew what happiness was,
          D           G
let the memory live again.

 B      C         B        C
Every streetlamp seems to beat
    B          D
a fatalistic warning.
 Am7                       G
Someone mutters and the streetlamp gutters
     Em              G
and soon it will be morning.

 G
Daylight.
                     Em
I must wait for the sunrise.
                   C
I must think of a new life
                   B
and I mustn't give in.
          D                            G
When the dawn come to night will be a memory, too,
       D            G
and a new day will begin.

 B         C         B      C
Burned out ends of smokey days
    B                   D
a stale cold smell of morning.
       Am7                   G
The streetlamp dies another night is over,
  Em             G
another day is dawning.

 G
Touch me.
                 Em
It's so easy to leave me
                    C
all alone with the memory
                   B
of my days in the sun.
           D                                Em
If you'll touch me you'll understand what happiness is.
         D            G
Look, a new day has begun.
