GToday the weather was so Cpretty
At D7noon I went out for a Gstroll
I walked and did some window Cshopping
And D7met someone I used to Gknow
The years have been kind to her Cbeauty
When D7I first saw her my heart Gjumped
Tonight if I seem disenCchanted
It's D7because I took a memory to Glunch
We sat and talked about the old Cdays
With D7misty teardrops in our Geyes
And reaffirmed an old Csuspicion
The D7past grows old but never Gdies
The charm that draws two hearts Ctogether
By D7four o'clock was just too Gmuch
The days and years we had between Cus
Were D7down to just two coffee Gcups
You can't relieve life in an Chour
The D7afternoon kept wearing Gon
I'm sorry that I'm late for Cdinner
I D7took a memory to Glunch

G C

Today the weather was so pretty

D7 G

At noon I went out for a stroll

I walked and did some window shopping

D7 G

And met someone I used to know

The years have been kind to her beauty

D7 G

When I first saw her my heart jumped

Tonight if I seem disenchanted

D7 G

It's because I took a memory to lunch

We sat and talked about the old days

D7 G

With misty teardrops in our eyes

And reaffirmed an old suspicion

D7 G

The past grows old but never dies

The charm that draws two hearts together

D7 G

By four o'clock was just too much

The days and years we had between us

D7 G

Were down to just two coffee cups

You can't relieve life in an hour

D7 G

The afternoon kept wearing on

I'm sorry that I'm late for dinner

D7 G

I took a memory to lunch
