Intro:
 D   G   A7   D 
 D   G   A7   D 
                           G      A7 
All the snow has turned to water,
                             D 
Christmas days have come and gone.
                G             A7                            D 
Broken toys and faded colours are all that's left to linger on.
                          G           A7 
I hate graveyards and old pawn shops,
                         D 
For they always bring me tears.
                             G               A7             D 
I can't forgive the way they robbed me of my childhood souvenirs.

Chorus:
 A7                      D 
Memories, they can't be boughten.
 A7                                 D 
They can't be won at carnivals for free.
 A7                       D 
Well it took me years to get those souvenirs,
      G                                     A7 
And i don't know how they slipped away from me.

                        G        A7 
Broken hearts and dirty windows
                       D 
Make life difficult to see.
                               G        A7         
That's why last night and this morning
                        D 
Always look the same to me.
                            G        A7 
And I hate reading old love letters 
                         D 
For they always bring me tears.
                            G          A7 
I can't forget the way they robbed me,
                        D 
Of my sweetheart's souvenirs.

 A7                      D 
Memories, they can't be boughten.
 A7                                 D 
They can't be won at carnivals for free.
 A7                       D 
Well it took me years to get those souvenirs,
      G                                     A7 
And i don't know how they slipped away from me.
