Charley Pride – Where Do I Put Her Memory (Guitar)

     C          F          C        Cadd9
I’ve taken down all of her pictures

     C           G          C       Cadd9
I’ve cleaned out all of her drawers

  C       F        C        Cadd9
I painted over the scratches

     C      G          C   G* Am* G
From all of our little wars

      C    E7  Am    C
And I put away every gift

     F                C
That she ever gave to me

         E7       Am      F
Now everything is in it’s place

  C        G       C   C
Except for her memory

               E7      Am   C
And where do I put her memo-ry

          F               C
When it’s always been, in my mind

                E7     Am
I can’t hide it in the closet

    D7                    G
And lord I can’t throw it away

C              E7      Am   C
And where do I put her memo-ry

          F              C
When it’s always been in my mind

                 E7         Am           F
I can’t chase it erase it I just have to face it

           C          G           C   Cadd9
It’s gonna be there a lo-ong long time

C     F          C     Cadd9
I got rid of the pillow

      C           G       C   Cadd9
Where she used to lay her head

     C             F            C      Cadd9
I've picked up her hairpins and curlers

         C              G           C   Cadd9
That she dropped on her side of the bed

     C       E7       Am   C
I've locked away each souvenir

    F               C
And thrown away the key

         E7       Am     F
Now everything is in its place

  C        G       C   C
Except for her memory

    C          E7      Am   C
And where do I put her memo-ry

          F              C
When it’s always been in my mind

                 E7         Am           F
I can’t chase it erase it I just have to face it

           C          G           Am   F
It’s gonna be there a lo-ong long time

           C          G           F    F* Em* Dm* C
It’s gonna be there a lo-ong long time
