I Keep the mem o ry, ly; but keep your pow der dry (D)too.

In the (G)sum ter (D)mer,

while the (G)fire (D)flies are (Em)all (D)a (Em)round (D)me,

I miss you when I’m lone ly; but keep your pow der dry (D)too.

I miss the al i mo ny (D)too.

Don’t for (Am)get (G)me.

Please don’t for (Am)get (G)me.

You know I (A7)think a bout ya; let me know you think a bout me (D)too.

Don’t for (Am)get (G)me.

Please don’t for (Am)get (G)me.

Make it (Am)eas y (G)on me (Am)just (G)for a (D)lit tle while.

You know I (A7)think a bout ya; let me know you think a bout me (D)too.

’cause noth in’ lasts for ev er, and I will al ways love you.

You know I (A7)think a bout you; let me know you think a bout me (D)too.
