[Intro]
E C#m F#m A………………..
 
[Verse 1]
ELast night Beth asked how you’re getting on
C#mI said you’re doing good
F#mBut some of you has left
AAnd some of you is still here
EI said it first just as a joke
C#mBut beneath all of the mirrors and smoke
F#m ASometimes I think your memory is selective
EIt just seems beyond convenient
C#mWhich parts are disappearing when
F#mThe times you can’t remember
AI can’t forget
EMaybe that’s a kindness though
C#mA beauty in the growing old
F#mThat for some
AOur own memories forgive us
 
[Pre-Chorus]
B E A C#mWell, it’s all that I could wish for you
A C#m B AIt’s all that I could ever wish for you
EThat those memories just fade away
 
[Interlude]
C#m F#m A…………..
 
[Verse 2]
EI reminded you just yesterday
C#mThat I have a daughter on the way
F#mAnd your eyes lit up
AAnd for a moment the clouds were lifted
EI hope that when you meet her too
C#mIt’s one of those days that stays with you
F#m AI hope she meets the person that I once knew
EAs she gets older, yeah I’m sure
C#mShe’ll ask about you more and more
F#mAnd I’ll tell her you were my best friend
A EAnd I’ll let some of my memories slip away
 
[Interlude]
C#m F#m A……………
 
[Bridge]
B E A C#mIt’s all that I could wish for you
A C#m B AIt’s all that I could ever wish for you
B E A C#mIt’s all that I could wish for you
A C#m B AIt’s all that I could ever wish for you
C#m B AThat I could ever wish for you
C#m B AThat I could ever wish for you
EThat those memories just fade away
