Memories

[Verse 1]
     A
It's been a couple months
A/G#                   F#m
    That's just about enough time
E                  D                             A/C#
 For me to stop cryin' when I look at all the pictures
Now I kinda smile,
Bm                              E
  I haven't felt that in a while
     A
It's late, I hear the door
A/G#                         F#m
    Bell ringin' and it's pourin'
E
 I open up that door,
D                             A/C#
 see your brown eyes at the entrance
You just wanna talk and
Bm                        E
  I can't turn away a wet dog

[Pre-Chorus]
    A            A/G#         F#m
But please don't ruin this for   me
      E                 D             A/C#
Please don't make it harder than it already is
       Bm         E
I'm trying to get over this

[Chorus]
A                      A/G#               F#m
 I wish that you would stay in my memories
                    E
But you showed up today,
just to ruin things
D                       A/C#
 I wanna put you in the past 'cause I'm traumatized
Bm                             E
  But you're not lettin' me do that,
'cause tonight
           A
You're all drunk in my kitchen,
              A/G#
curled in the fetal position
         F#m                         E
Too busy playin' the victim to be listenin' to me
          D
When I say
                       A/C#                Bm
"I wish that you would stay in my memories"
                E
In my memories, stay in my memories

[Verse 2]
    A                    A/G#                     F#m
Now I can't say "Goodbye"    if you stay here the whole
night
E
 You see,
                        D
it's hard to find an end to somethin' that you keep
     A/C#
beginning
Over and over again
Bm                          E
  I promise that the ending always stays the same
             A                   A/G#
So there's no good reason in make    believin' that
  F#m                 E
we   could ever exist again
                D
I can't be your friend,
can't be your lover
             A/C#
Can't be the reason we hold back each other from falling in
Bm
love
              E
With somebody other than me

[Chorus]
A                      A/G#               F#m
 I wish that you would stay in my memories
                    E
But you showed up today,
just to ruin things
D                       A/C#
 I wanna put you in the past 'cause I'm traumatized
Bm                             E
  But you're not lettin' me do that,
'cause tonight
           A
You're all drunk in my kitchen,
              A/G#
curled in the fetal position
         F#m                         E
Too busy playin' the victim to be listenin' to me
          D
When I say
                       A/C#                Bm
"I wish that you would stay in my memories"
                E
In my memories, stay in my memories

[Bridge]
D             Dm
Since you came
  E                      C#7
I guess I'll let you stay
       D               Dm
For as long as it takes
             A                  A/G#
To grab your books and your coat
            F#m            E
And that one   good cologne
               C#7             D
That you bought   when we were fighting
                 A
'Cause it's still on my clothes,
A/G#          F#m          E
    everything   that I own
            C#7             D
And it makes   me feel like dying
      C#7            D
I was barely just surviving

[Chorus]
A                      A/G#               F#m
 I wish that you would stay in my memories
                    E
But you showed up today,
just to ruin things
D                       A/C#
 I wanna put you in the past 'cause I'm traumatized
Bm                             E
  But you're not lettin' me do that,
'cause tonight
           A
You're all drunk in my kitchen,
              A/G#
curled in the fetal position
         F#m                         E
Too busy playin' the victim to be listenin' to me
          D
When I say
                       A/C#                Bm
"I wish that you would stay in my memories"
                E
In my memories, stay in my memories
