E7/13   Fdim          A6           F#m    A         Edim     E7        Cdim
Thanks     for the memory,   of candlelight and wine, castles on the Rhine
  E7          F#m7            Bm5-/7           E7
The Parthenon and moments on the Hudson River Line
  D9   Dm6    Cdim    E7  E7/13   Fdim       A6  F#m
How lovely      it  was! Thanks     for the memory
 A              Edim   E7       Cdim
Of rainy afternoons, swingy Harlem tunes
       E7              F#m7              Bm5-/7           E7
And motor trips and burning lips and burning toast and prunes
  E7   D9      A       A       A7M         D9     E7
How lovely    it  was! Many's the time that we feasted
  A     A7M          D9     E7        G          Bm7        Am7        D7
And many's the time that we fasted, Oh, well, it was swell while it lasted
 G      G/F#   E7                   E7/13   Fdim          A6  F#m
We did have fun and no harm done and thanks      for the memory
Continues after the ad
  A          Edim           E7         Cdim
Of sunburns at the shore, nights in Singapore
  E7             F#m7           Bm5-/7               E7
You might have been a headache but you never were a bore
  D9    Dm6   Cdim   E7    E7/13   Fdim        A6  F#m
So thank you    so  much. Thanks      for the memory
 A          Edim           E7      Cdim
Of sentimental verse, nothing in my purse
  E7           F#m7               Bm5-/7               E7
And chuckles when the preacher said "For better or for worse"
D9     Dm6    Cdim     E7  E7/13   Fdim       A6   F#m
How lovely       it  was. Thanks     for the memory
  A            Edim       E7        Cdim
Of lingerie with lace, Pilsner by the case
  E7              F#m7            Bm5-/7            E7
And how I jumped the day you trumped my one-and-only ace
  D9   E7       A        A       A7M      D9      E7
How lovely    it   was. We said goodbye with a highball
  A      A7M         D9      E7  G         Bm7        Am7     D7
Then I got as "high" as a steeple, but we were intelligent people
G        G/F#      E7                E7/6   Fdim        A6   F#m
No tears, no fuss, Hooray! For us. So, thanks     for the memory
  A            Edim   E7             Cdim
And strictly entre-nous, darling how are you
E7                    F#m7              Bm5-/7        E7
And how are all the little dreams that never did come true
D          Fdim       A          F#7               D9      E7   A
