Lyrics

The way you (Ab)wear your hat,

the way you sip your tea,

the mem ’ry of all that,

no, no, they (Ab)can’t take that a (Gm)way from (F7)me!

The way your (Ab)smile just beams,

the way you sing off key,

the way you haunt my dreams,

no, no, they (Fm7)can’t take that a (Bb7)way from (Eb)me!

We may (Gm)nev er, (Gm6)nev er, (Gm7)meet a (Gm6)gain on the (Gm)bump y road (A7)to (Am7)love,

still I’ll (Gm)al ways, (Gm6)al ways (Gm7)keep the (C7)mem ’ry (F7)of:

the way you (Ab)hold your knife,

the way we danced till three,

the way you’ve changed my life.

No, (Eb7)no!

They (Ab)can’t take that a (Bb7)way from (Cm)me!

(Db7)No!

They (Gm)can’t (Ab)take (Gm)that a (Fm7)way

(Bb)from

(Eb)me!
