[Verse 1]
CComing down the hG/Bighway like a frAmight
Laughing thG/Bree o’clock at Fnight
With the dGesert stars above
 CSinging JG/Bune and Johnny's sAmongs
You felt prG/Betty, I felt strFong
And Gno one called our bluff
And lAmove was a sEimE7ple FsongG  
[Chorus]
         *C2   Em7   Am7    G7  Am*
And I'll hold you all my life
Like a mFemory at the bG/Back of my mCind
[Verse 2]
CSummers G/Bcome and go so Amfast
Close your G/Beyes the moment's Fpast
And aGnother year is gone
CWe built our G/Bcastles in the Amsand
The higher G/Btide had other Fplans
But GI'm still holding on
And Amlove was a fEraE7gile FsongG  
[Chorus]
         *C2   Em7   Am7    G7  Am*
And I'll hold you all my life
Like a mFemory at the bG/Back of my mCind
[Verse 3]
CDarling G/Bnothing stays the Amsame
We were G/Bborn without a Fname
And Gthat’s the way we'll die
CBut even G/Bwhen the memories Amfade
What we G/Bhave is still ingFrained
It's Gwritten down inside
And Amlove was our tEimeE7less FsongG  
[Chorus 2]
       *C2    Em7   Am7   G7  Am*
And Ill hold you all my fife
Like a chFild asking wGhy
And I'll hCold you G/Ball my lAmife
Like a memFory at the bG/Back of my mCindG/B  Am  
Just a memFory at the bG/Back of my mCind
