Intro 1

Last night Beth asked how you're

Verse 1
D 
getting on
Bm 
I said you're doing good
Em 
But some of you has left
G 
And some of you is still here
D 
I said it first just as a joke
Bm 
But beneath all of the
mirrors and smoke
Em 
Sometimes I think your memory
G 
is selective
D 
It just seems beyond convenient
Bm 
Which parts are disappearing when
Em 
The times you can't remember
G 
I can't forget
D 
Maybe that's a kindness though
Bm 
A beauty in the growing old
Em 
That for some,
G 
our own memories forgive us
A 
Well, it's all

Interlude 1

I reminded you

Verse 3
just yesterday
Bm 
That I have a daughter on
the way
Em 
And your eyes   lit up
G 
And for a moment the clouds were lifted
D 
I hope that when you meet her too
Bm 
It's one of those days
that stays with you
Em 
I hope she meets the person
G 
that I once knew
D 
As she gets older, yeah, I'm sure
Bm 
She'll ask about you
more and more
Em 
And I'll tell her you were
my best friend
G 
I will let some of my memories
D 
slip away
