VERSE 1:
[G#] Every night I sit here by my window

[G#] Watching' lovers
[G#7] holding hands and

[D#7] things we used to
[G#] do
CHORUS:
[G#] Thinkin' bout
[D#7] things Like a walk in the park
[G#] (Things) Like a kiss in the dark,
[D#7] (Things) Like a sailboat ride
[G# open] What about the night we cried
[C#] Things like a lovers' vow,
[G#] Things that we don't do now
[D#7] Thinkin about the things we used to
[G#] do

[G#] Memories are all I have to cling to,
And heartaches are the friends I'm talkin'

And the face I see each day belongs to
