If Only For Memories

2

Capo 2 

intro 
G  C  G  C  x4 
G  F  C C C 
G  F  Am  G 
G  C  G  C  x2 

C                               G 
When you were born you were not alone 
                            F 
Nothing was carved into the stone quite yet, but don't forget 
    C                    G                     C 
You heard someone say it won't get better than this 
C                                    G 
That was the sound of your father 
G                                   F 
As he held you up to your mother 
F 
No one will ever know,  
  C                  G                       C 
a love a pure as the one that you felt right then 

C              G                Dm 
They held you up, they held you up 
    C                   G 
And everybody else they fell to the wayside 
C 
This is the start the beginning 
G 
The prologue to the tale that you're spinning 
Dm                      C                      G 
A million synonyms will never come close to describe the feeling 

F F F            C C C               G G G 
      Don't ever leave, cause if you do dear 
        Am                 F 
I guarantee that you'll regret the day you did 
                C 
and you'll miss all the simple things 
                G 
And you'll see everything you've ever loved 
                                           Am 
start fading till there's nothing left oh 


Am      C          G            F                Am 
And I believe that every broken bone is meant to be 
Am          C                G 
And when it heals it will be stronger than it was before 
Am    C        G                F                 Am 
And I see, the things that I pretend that I don't see 
Am    C                G 
And I keep them in my head love 

If only for memories 

break 
G  C  G  C  x4 

C                                G 
So now you're young and you feel alone 
                                   F 
Despite friends family and all the good things now surrounding you 
    C                                G                     C 
You can't help thinking that there's gotta be some more to do 
C                                     G 
When all the things that you cherish 
G                                   F 
Turn into burdens and there is 
F 
No other path to take,  
    C                       G                     C 
you know what you've got to do but you don't know how 

C             G                  Dm 
They hold you back they hold you down 
           C                      G 
And you're gonna feel bad but you know that you've gotta get out 
C 
This is your pain your dilemma 
G 
Do you stay in the town where they raised ya 
Dm                     C                      G 
Or will you sail away, pull the anchor and go headed for the come-what-may? 

F F F             C C C               G G G 
      You have to leave, cause if you don't dear 
             Am                 F 
you'll never see the things you read about in books 
            C 
you saw the films and you were hooked 
         G 
but everything you want won't come to you 
                                              Am 
you realize now that you've gotta go see this through 


Am      C          G            F                Am 
And I believe that every broken bone is meant to be 
Am          C                G 
And when it heals it will be stronger than it was before 
Am    C        G                F                 Am 
And I see, the things that I pretend that I don't see 
Am    C                G 
And I keep them in my head love 

If only for memories 

Instrumental Bit 
G  C  G  C  x4 

F   C   E   Am   x3 
F   C   E -------> 

C                              G 
So now you're old raising your own 
                             F 
Two souls to make yourself a home, you finally settled down 
       C                       G                     C 
you've seen the world but your heart never left this town 
C                                   G 
They have the eyes of their mother 
G                                         F 
The kind of crooked teeth of their father 
F 
No one will ever know 
  C                   G                     C 
A love as pure as the one that you feel for them 

C                G                   Dm 
You'll hold them up you'll hold them up 
    C                   G 
And everybody else will fall to the wayside 
C 
There is no end no beginning 
G 
On this merry-go-round we call living 
Dm                        C                          G 
Some day you will return, every single ounce of the love you were given 

F F F                  C C C            G G G 
      Someday they'll go, and when they leave home 
             Am               F 
you will be grateful for the lesson that you learned 
            C 
you had to travel half the world 
       G 
to realize what you knew all along 
                                       Am 
that everything will end up where it belongs 


Am      C          G            F                Am 
And I believe that every broken bone is meant to be 
Am          C                G 
And when it heals it will be stronger than it was before 
Am    C        G                F                 Am 
And I see, the things that I pretend that I don't see 
Am    C                G 
And I keep them in my head love 

If only for memories
