There are | [C] places [Em7] I'll re- | [Am] member [C7↑]
All my | [F] li- [Fm] -ife though | [C] some have changed
Some for- | [C] ever [Em7] not for | [Am] better [C7↑]
Some have | [F] go- [Fm] -one and | [C] some remain

All these | [Am] places had their | [F] moments
With | [Bb] lovers and friends, I | [C] still can recall
Some are | [Am] dead and some are | [D] living
In | [Fm] my life, I've | [C] loved them all |

But of | [C] all these [Em7] friends and | [Am] lovers [C7↑]
There is | [F] no [Fm] one com- | [C] pares with you
And these | [C] memories [Em7] lose their | [Am] meaning [C7↑]
When I | [F] think of [Fm] love as | [C] something new

Though I | [Am] know I'll never lose af- | [F] fection
For | [Bb] people and things, that | [C] went before
I | [Am] know I'll often stop and think a- | [D] bout them
In | [Fm] my life, I'll | [C] love you more |
