MEMORY MOTEL
THE ROLLING STONES
[Intro] D Bm G A x2
[Verse]
[Verse]
Hannah baby was a honey of a girl
Her eyes were hazel, her teeth were slightly curved
She took my guitar and she began to play
She sang a song to me, stuck right in my brain
[Chorus]
[BREAK]
Well, she's one of the kind
[Verse]
She drove her pickup truck, painted green and blue
The tires were wearin' thin, she's done a mile or two
When I asked her where's she headed for
Back up to Boston, I'm singin' in a bar
I've got to fly today on down to Baton Rouge
My nerves was shot already, the road ain't all that smooth
Across in Texas is the rose in San Antone
I keep on a feelin' that gnawin' in my bone
[Chorus]
You're just a memory, (just a memory) of a love
That used to mean so much to me. (just a memory)
You're just a memory, (just a memory) of a love
That used to mean so much to me
(You're just a memory girl)
You're just a sweet old memory
And it used to mean so much to me
Sha-la-la-la, Sha-la-la-la
Sha-la-la-la, Sha-la-la-la
You're just a memory of a love
That used to mean so much to me
[BREAK]
She got a mind of her own and she use it well, yeah
Mighty fine, 'cause she's one of a kind
She got a mind of her own, she's one of a kind
And she use it well
[Verse]
On the seventh day my eyes were all aglaze
We've been ten thousand miles, we've been in fifteen states
Every woman seem to fade out of my mind
I hit the bottle then I hit the sack and cried
What's all this laughter on the twenty second floor
It's just some friends of mine
And they're bustin' down the door
It's been a lonely night at the Memory Motel
