Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][G][A][D]
[D][G][A][D]

[Verse 1]
[D]All the snow has turned to wat[G]er
[A]Christmas days have come and gon[D]e
Broken toys and faded [G]colors
[A]Are all that's left to linger on[D]

[Verse 2]
[D]I hate graveyards and old
[G]pawn shops
[A]For they always bring me tea[D]rs
I can't forgive the way they [G]rob me
[A]Of my childhood souvenir[D]s[D]

[Chorus 1]
[A]Memories they can't be bou[D]ghten
They [A]can't be won at carnivals for [D]free
[A]Well it took me years
To [D]get those souvenirs
And I [G]don't know how they
slipped away from [A]me

[Interlude 1]
[D][G][A][D]
[D][G][A][D]

[Verse 3]
[D]Broken hearts and dirty win[G]dows
[A]Make life difficult to see[D]
That's why last night and this [G]mornin'
[A]Always look the same to me[D]

[Verse 4]
[D]I hate reading old love let[G]ters
[A]For they always bring me tea[D]rs
I can't forgive the way they [G]rob me
[A]Of my sweetheart's souvenir[D]s[D]

[Chorus 2]
[A]Memories they can't be bou[D]ghten
They [A]can't be won at carnivals for [D]free
[A]Well it took me years
To [D]get those souvenirs
And I [G]don't know how they
slipped away from [A]me

[Outro 1]
[D][G][A][D]
