 Title:  Souvenirs


          
 G                   
 C
 All the snow has turned to water
 
 D                           
 G
 Christmas day has come and gone
                        
 C
 Broken toys and faded colors
 
 D                             
 G
 Are all that's left to linger on
 
 G                          
 C
 I hate graveyards and old pawnshops
 
 D                         
 G
 For they always bring me tears
 
 G                          
 C
 Can't forgive the way they rob me
 
 D                        
 G
 Of my childhoood souvenirs


 (Chorus:)
 
 D                        
 G
 Memories, they can't be boughten
       
 D                             
 G
 They can't be won at carnivals for free
 
 D                     
 G
 It took me years, to get those souvenirs
       
 C                                    
 D
 And I don't know how they slipped away from me


 Broken hearts and dirty windows
 Make life difficult to see
 That's why last night and this morning
 Always look the same to me

 I hate reading old love letters
 For they always bring me tears
 Can't forgive the way they rob me
 Of my sweetheart souvenirs

 (repeat chorus)
