[Verse 1]
I'd never thought i'd
 C          G
see the day
                Em
That I wouldn't see
          D
 your face
            C
Looking back god i'd
                G
wish i'd had known
             Em
That I'd love you
                    D
then have to let go

{Pre-chorus]

Cause you brought out
     C         G
the best in me
                 Em
You always saw a light
                    D
 no one else can see
        C
Now I know that you're
              G
gone but I promise
              D
I won't forget
[Chorus]

So, thank you for all
      C       G Em
the memories
      D
Cause you'll never know
         C          G Em
what it meant to me
      D
Cause you were the one
     C
 who gave me pеace when
    G
 I had none lеft
Em
Held me close at my
 D
loneliest
C                    G
Thanks for the memories
Em                  D
Here's to the memories

[Verse 2]
                    C
I wish that I could call
       G
you up
                  Em
Just to hear your voice,
                  D
 that would be enough
              C
And we'd laugh like
                     G
 we're back at the start
       Em
And pretend we're not
              D
 fallin' apart

 And sometimes we would
 G
