[Intro]
C
[Verse 1]
CComing down the G/Bhighway like a Amfright
Laughing Gthree o’clock at Fnight
With the Gdesert stars above
CSinging G/BJune and Johnny's Amsongs
You felt Gpretty, I felt Fstrong
And Gno one called our bluff
And Amlove was a Esimple FsongG  
[Chorus]
And I'll Chold G/Byou  Amall Gmy Amlife
Like a Fmemory at the Gback of my Cmind
[Verse 2]
CSummers G/Bcome and go so Amfast
Close your Geyes the moment's Fpast
And aGnother year is gone
CWe built our G/Bcastles in the Amsand
The higher Gtide had other Fplans
But GI'm still holding on
And Amlove was a Efragile FsongG  
[Chorus]
And I'll Chold G/Byou  Amall Gmy Amlife
Like a Fmemory at the Gback of my Cmind
[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
CDarling G/Bnothing stays the Amsame
We were Gborn without a Fname
And Gthat’s the way we'll die
CBut even G/Bwhen the memories Amfade
What we Ghave is still inFgrained
It's Gwritten down inside
And Amlove was our Etimeless FsongG  
[Chorus]
And I'll Chold G/Byou  Amall Gmy Amlife
Like a Fchild asking wGhy
And I'll Chold G/Byou  Amall Gmy Amlife
Like a Fmemory at the Gback of my CmindG/B  Am  G  
Just a Fmemory at the Gback of my Cmind
