              C     F                C 
Misty memories  linger on 
  
            G7 
Though it's been so long 
  
                  C 
Since you've been gone 
  
      F                              C 
Every time I hear your name my heart cries 
 
F         G7               C 
And misty memories fill my eyes 
  
 
C  
I thought if I could live without you 
  
F               C 
Long enough I'd see the day 
  
     Am                 Dm 
When you don't cross my mind 
  
G7     C                             F 
And if I could learn to love another long enough 
  
    G7                               C 
I'd leave those misty memories all behind 
 
 
      F                       C 
Misty memories  they leave it all 
  
         G7 
And it's been so long 
  
                  C 
Since you've been gone 
  
      F                              C 
Every time I hear your name my heart cries 
 
F         G7               C 
And misty memories fill my eyes  
 
 
          F                                    C 
Yes every time I hear your name my heart still cries 
 
F         G7               C 
And misty memories fill my eyes
