[Verse]
G D
I think that I will just take a memory,
A C G D
A small one that I know real well, then go.
G D
What I'll take is all the happy thoughts I can recall,
A C G D
But I know there won't be much that I can bear to touch.
G D
So I'll just take what my mind can stand.
A G
'Cause there's not a lot that you can hold
[Chorus]
D C G D
In trembling hands.
G D
Just these last few hopeful things that we left lay.
A D C G D
Then quickly leave before any more get in my way.
