It's on the ocean I guess you know it well
F                           Dm
It took a starry night to steal my breath
           A#
away
                            Gm7
Down on the waterfront her hair all

drenched
    F
in spray
(SIMILAR)
Hannah baby was a honey of a girl
Her eyes were hazel her teeth were slightly
curved
She took my guitar and she began to play
She sang a song to me, stuck right in my
brain
F              Dm   A#               Gm7
You're just a memory of a love that used

to be
F              Dm   A#               Gm7

A#                     F
She got a mind of her own, yeah, and she
C              F
use it mighty fine
(SIMILAR)
She drove a pick-up truck painted green
and blue
The tires were wearing thin she done a mile
or two
And when I asked her where she headed
for
(Back up to Boston I'm singing in a bar)
I got to fly today on down to Baton Rouge
My nerves are shot already the road ain't
all that smooth

Across in Texas is the rose of San Antone
I keep on a feeling that gnawing in my
bones

You're just a memory (just a memory) of a
love that used to mean so
much to me
(just a memory)
You're just a memory of a love that used
to mean so
much to me
You're just a memory girl, you're just a
sweet
old memory
And it used to mean so much to me

Sha la laa la
Sha la laa la
Sha la laa la
Sha la laa la

You're just a memory of a love that used
to mean so much to me

She got a mind of her own and she use it
well
Mighty fine she's one of a kind
She got a mind of her own
She's one of a kind and she use it well

On the seventh day my eyes were all
aglaze
We been ten thousand miles and been in
fifteen states
Every woman seemed to fade out of my
mind
I hit the bottle and I hit the sack and cried
What's all this laughter on the
twenty-second floor?
It's just some friends of mine and they're
busting
down the doors

It's been a lonely night at the Memory
Motel

You're just a memory girl just a memory
And it used to mean so much to me
You're just a memory girl you're just a
memory
And it used to mean so much to me
You're just a memory girl you're just a
sweet old memory
And it used to mean so much to me
You're just a memory of a love that used
to mean so
much to me

She's got a mind of her own and she use it
well yeah
Well she's one of a kind

...and the last one of the night...
