Intro
[E]
Verse 1
[E]You gave me [G#m]a [F#m]reason, [A]to laugh when I was[E] down
[E]And you are all I [G#m]feel [F#m]for, [A]or care for in this [E]town
Where we are the [A]only two [G#m]dreamers [F#m]alive
We've got to [G#m]leave, we can [F#m]only [E]survive
Where all of this will [D]be, a [F#m]vague [E]memory
Verse 2
[E]We see old friends [G#m]and [F#m]lovers, with [A]sadness in their [E]eyes
[E]Dark empty [G#m][F#m]places, we [A]don't quite [E]recognize
Yes baby the world[A] that we [G#m]once knew [F#m]now seems
To be be fading [G#m]like scenes [F#m]from old [E]dreams
It's fading gradually, [D]like a [F#m]vague [E]memory
Chorus
A vague [Fmaj7][G]memory, may [Fmaj7]never go [D]away
But it won't bring you [G][A]down, [G]day after [D]day
For those who can't [G]feel what a [F#m]young heart can [Em]feel
This place holds [F#m]something [Em]familiar and [D]real
But for [E]you and [F#m]me, it's a [A]vague [B][E]memory
Verse 3
[E]You gave me [G#m]a [F#m]reason to [A]laugh when I was [E]down
[E]And you are all I [G#m]feel [F#m]for, or [A]care for in this [E]town
Whenever I hold [A]you I know [G#m]in my [F#m]heart
That it soon [G#m]will move on and [F#m]restart[E]
And all of this will [D]be, just [F#m]a vague [E]memory
Chorus
A vague [Fmaj7][G]memory, may [Fmaj7]never go [D]away
But it won't bring you [G][A]down, [G]day after [D]day
For those who can't [G]feel what a [F#m]young heart can [Em]feel
This place holds [F#m]something [Em]familiar and [D]real
But for [E]you and [F#m]me, it's a [A]vague [B][E]memory
[E]Just a vague memory
A [E]vague memory
