Memory Andrew Lloyd Webber
Memory, from Cats (by Andrew Lloyd Webber)
As performed on the London Cast Recording, circa 1981
[Bb]Midnight, not a sound on the p[Gm]avement
Has the moon lost a m[D#]emory? She is smiling [Dm]alone
In the l[Cm]amplight the withered leaves c[Gm]ollect at my feet
And the w[F]ind begins to m[Bb]oan
M[Bb]emory, all alone in the [Gm]moonlight
I can smile at the [D#]old days
I was beautiful [Dm]then
I re[Cm]member the time I knew what h[Gm]appiness was
Let the [F]memory live [Bb]again
[Dm]Every s[D#]treet lamp [Dm]seems to b[D#]eat
A fa[Dm]talis[Bb]tic w[F]arning
[Dm]Someone m[G]utters and a [C]street lamp [Am]flutters
And [Dm]soon it [F]will be [C]morning
[Bb]Daylight, I must wait for [Gm]the sunrise
I must think of a [D#]new life
And I mustn't give [Dm]in
When the [Cm]dawn comes tonight will be a m[Gm]emory too
And a n[F]ew day will [Bb]begin

[A#m]Burnt o[B]ut ends of s[A#m]mokey day[B]s
The [A#m]stale cold s[F#]mell of m[C#]orning

[A#m]Another d[C#]ay is d[G#]awning

[C#]Touch me, it's so easy to [Bbm]leave me
All alone with the [F#]memory
Of my days in the s[Fm]un
If you [D#m]touch me you'll understand what h[Bbm]appiness is
[G#]Look, a new day has [C#]begun
