Lyrics and Chords
[1] Just a [5] few old [1] memories that slipped in through the [4] door Though I thought I had [1] closed it so tightly be-[5]-fore I can't understand [1] it why it should bother my [4] mind For it all be-[1]-longs to a-[5]-nother place and [1] time [4] [1]
Just a few old [4] keepsakes way back on the [1] shelf No they don't mean [4] nothing I'm surprised that they're [5] left Just a few old love [1] letters with the edges all [4] brown And an old faded [1] picture I keep [5] turned upside [1] down [4] [1]
Just a few old memories go way back in time Why I can hardly remember I don't know why I'm crying I can't understand it why I'm surprised at myself First thing tomorrow morning I'll clean off that shelf
