C   Cadd9   C  Cadd9

[Verse 1]
     C          F          C        Cadd9
I’ve taken down all of her pictures
     C           G          C       Cadd9
I’ve cleaned out all of her drawers
  C       F        C        Cadd9
I painted over the scratches
     C      G          C   G* Am* G
From all of our little wars

[Pre-chorus]
      C    E7  Am    C
And I put away every gift
     F                C
That she ever gave to me
         E7       Am      F
Now everything is in it’s place
  C        G       C   C
Except for her memory

[Chorus]
               E7      Am   C
And where do I put her memo-ry
          F               C
When it’s always been, in my mind
                E7     Am
I can’t hide it in the closet
    D7                    G
And lord I can’t throw it away

C              E7      Am   C
And where do I put her memo-ry
          F              C
When it’s always been in my mind
                 E7         Am           F
I can’t chase it erase it I just have to face it
           C          G           C   Cadd9
It’s gonna be there a lo-ong long time

[Verse 2]
C     F          C     Cadd9
I got rid of the pillow
      C           G       C   Cadd9
Where she used to lay her head
     C             F            C      Cadd9
I've picked up her hairpins and curlers
         C              G           C   Cadd9
That she dropped on her side of the bed

[Pre-chorus]
     C       E7       Am   C
I've locked away each souvenir
    F               C
And thrown away the key
         E7       Am     F
Now everything is in its place
  C        G       C   C
Except for her memory

[Chorus]
    C          E7      Am   C
And where do I put her memo-ry
          F              C
When it’s always been in my mind
                 E7         Am           F
I can’t chase it erase it I just have to face it
           C          G           Am   F
It’s gonna be there a lo-ong long time

           C          G           F    F* Em* Dm* C
It’s gonna be there a lo-ong long time
