G
My world is like a river
C
As dark as it is deep
D7
Night after night the past slips in
G
And gathers all my sleep
My days are just an endless stream
C
Of emptiness to me
G
Filled only by the fleeting
D7 G
Moments of your memory
D7 G B7 Em
Sweet memories sweet memories
G
You slipped into the silence
C
Of my dreams last night
D7
Wandering from room to room
G
And turning on each light
Your laughter spills like water
C
From the river to the sea
G
And I'm swept away from sadness
D7 G
Clinging to your memory
D7 G B7 Em
Sweet memories sweet memories
G D7 G
Memories of the sweetest love I know

I'm guessing that Ricky Van Shelton and Brenda Lee had the biggest hit with this beautiful song. Hank and his backup singers do a great job with it, the chords require a bit of practice for most of us. Copy Sweet Memories lyrics and chords to help you learn to play and sing this wonderful classic.
