John Prine - "Souvenirs"

Artist: John Prine
Title: Souvenirs

G C
All the snow has turned to water
D G
Christmas day has come and gone
C
Broken toys and faded colors
D G
Are all that's left to linger on
G C
I hate graveyards and old pawnshops
D G
For they always bring me tears
G C
Can't forgive the way they rob me
D G
Of my childhoood souvenirs

(Chorus:)
D G
Memories, they can't be boughten
D G
They can't be won at carnivals for free
D G
It took me years, to get those souvenirs
C D
And I don't know how they slipped away from me

Broken hearts and dirty windows
Make life difficult to see
That's why last night and this morning
Always look the same to me

I hate reading old love letters
For they always bring me tears
Can't forgive the way they rob me
Of my sweetheart souvenirs

(repeat chorus)
