Intro G - G - Em - C verse 1 G All my friends say that they're happy that I'm moving on Em First time that they've seen me smile since you up and gone C G But your memory won't let me go G Pretty as a picture that you'd hang up on a wall Em But she just can't compare to you and it really ain't her fault C I know that I should fall for her Believe me girl I've tried G D But your memory won't let me G She's all good, but you're the best I ever had Em Tell me how could she ever compete with that C Ocean Boulevard still has my heart Close my eyes and there we are G D You're still the only place that feels like home G Em Cause your memory won't let me go C No your memory won't let me verse 2 G Sometimes when she's close to me I still smell your perfume Em And every time I'm holding her, I'm really holding you C And any man in his right mind would be all hers by now G D But your memory won't let me G - D G I know that I should fall for her Em Believe me girl I've tried C But your memory won't let me G She's all good, but you're the best I ever had Em Tell me how could she ever compete with that C Ocean Boulevard still has my heart Am Close my eyes and there we are G D You're still the only place that feels like home G Em Cause your memory won't let me go C G Oh your memory won't let me go Em No your memory won't let me go C Won't let me G Oh your memory won't let me go
