CHORDS

Gm7 C9              F6
Thanks….for the memory…
F                      F#dim    C7               F
Of candlelight and wine, castles on the Rhine
F#dim                 C7                     F#dim             Gm C7
The Parthenon and moments on the Hudson River Line
Adim Gm Gm7 C9
How lovely it was!

Gm7 C9              F6
Thanks….for the memory…
F                      F#dim    C7               F
Of rainy afternoons, swingy Harlem tunes
F#dim                 C7                     F#dim             Gm C7
And motor trips and burning lips and burning toast and prunes
Adim Gm Gm7 C9
How lovely it was!

[Bridge 1]
Ab Eb7
Many’s the time that we feasted
Ab F#dim
And many’s the time that we fasted
C Am Dm7 G9
Oh, well, it was swell while it lasted
Gm7 C9 C7#5 D7
We did have fun and no harm done.

Gm7 C9              F6
Thanks….for the memory…
F                      F#dim    C7               F
Of sunburns at the shore, nights in Singapore
F#dim                 C7                     F#dim             Gm C7
You might have been a headache but you never were a bore
Bb9 Bbm6 Abdim C7
So thank you so much.

Gm7 C9              F6
Thanks….for the memory…
F                      F#dim    C7               F
Of sentimental verse, nothing in my purse
C7 Dm7 Gm7-5 C7
And chuckles when the preacher said “For better or for worse”
Adim Gm Gm7 C9
How lovely it was

[Bridge 2]
Ab Eb7
We said goodbye with a highball
Ab F#dim
Then I got as “high” as a steeple (Did you?)
C Am Dm7 G9
But we were intelligent people
Gm7 C9 C7#5 D7
No tears, no fuss, Hooray! For us!

Gm7 C9              F6
Thanks….for the memory…
F                      F#dim    C7               F
And strictly entre-nous, darling how are you?
F#dim                 C7                     F#dim             Gm C7
And how are all the little dreams that never did come true?
Fdim F                                  Db7
Aw’flly glad I met you, cheerio, and toodle-oo
Gm7         C9  F
And thank you so much.
