D
G - Bm Em
1. Nickels and dimes memories and wine,
C D7
she's
on his mind once again.
G - Bm Em
The same ole stool, the same ole fool,
C D7
played
by the rules, but didn't win.
Am D7
There's an old love in his heart that he
can't lose,
Am D7
he
tried forgetting, but he knows that it's no use.
G
Bm C
He's got a fool hearted memory,
Am
D7
it won't let him see that she
walked out the door.
G
Bm C Cm
He's got a fool hearted memory, he sits patiently
Am D7

here every night so it can fool
him more. + G - Bm - C - Am - D

2. She was his girl, his only world,
C D7
that
string of pearls that slipped away.
G - Bm Em
A thousand dimes, a thousand times
C D7
he
doesn't mind what they say.
Am D7
He fills the jukebox then
plays that same ole song,
Am D7
he
fills his glass and then he turns her memory on.
