There's a place
[G] I [F] can go in [C] my memory
[G] Back to a life I chose to leave [C] behind
And
[G]
[C] sometimes I [E] [F] still need to [C] remember
[Dm] When times [C] were good
[G]
[C] and you were mine
I'm still living with [F] my reasons [C] for leaving
They [G]
must have seemed more important at the [C] time
Now I only [F] dream about [C] the two of us
When times were good
[G]
and you [C] were mine
I [G]
[C] [Dm]
[C] [F] still have everything that came [C] between us
[G] My old guitar and [Dm] [G] a weakness for the [C] wine
[G] So
[D]
[F] tonight I thought I'd write one for [C] the memory
When times were good and [G]
you [C] were mine

There's a golden [F] eagle rolling [C] out of Memphis
And
[Em] a country [G]
singer still lost between [C] the lines
And I know that this [F] old road I'm on will never lead me
[G] [C] When times were good
[Cm] [G]

I [F] still have everything that [C] came between us
My [G] old guitar [D]
and [G] a weakness for the [C] wine
