Memory, from Cats (by Andrew Lloyd Webber) As performed on the London Cast Recording, circa 1981 Bb Gm Midnight, not a sound on the pavement Eb Dm Has the moon lost a memory? She is smiling alone Cm Gm In the lamplight the withered leaves collect at my feet F Bb And the wind begins to moan Bb Gm Memory, all alone in the moonlight Eb I can smile at the old days Dm I was beautiful then Cm Gm I remember the time I knew what happiness was F Bb Let the memory live again Dm Eb Dm Eb Every street lamp seems to beat Dm Bb F A fatalistic warning Dm G C Am Someone mutters and a street lamp flutters Dm F C And soon it will be morning Bb Gm Daylight, I must wait for the sunrise Eb I must think of a new life Dm And I mustn't give in Cm Gm When the dawn comes tonight will be a memory too F Bb And a new day will begin INSTRUMENTAL (LIKE VERSE w/key change) F# - Ebm B Bbm Abm Ebm C# F# Bbm B Bbm B Burnt out ends of smokey days Bbm F# C# The stale cold smell of morning Bbm F# Ab Fm A street lamp dies another night is over Bbm C# Ab Another day is dawning (KEY CHANGE) C# Bbm Touch me, it's so easy to leave me F# All alone with the memory Fm Of my days in the sun Ebm Bbm If you touch me you'll understand what happiness is Ab C# Look, a new day has begun
