Recorded by The Statler Brothers
Written by Don S. Reid and Harold W. Reid
C F C
I burned all those pictures at least ten years ago
G7 C
That one of you beside the car was hardest to let go
C7 F C
That shoe box full of memories promises and lies
G7 C
The smoke from those old letters still gets in my eyes
F G7 C
Just a few old memories of how it used to be
F G7 C G7
Old songs and old friend remind me constantly
C F C
To think how close I was to you still gets close to me
G7 C
But all that’s left for me to love are a few old memories
F C
There’s still a silver bracelet around the house somewhere
G7 C
It’s probably in that old trunk we keep beneath the stairs
C7 F C
The words you had put on it have tarnished and turned
G7 C
It and a few old memories are all that wouldn’t burn
Repeat #2
G7 C
A few old memories
