 C                E7
You are still my boy

F                   A7
Even though you're gone now

 Dm           A7                Dm   G
We have your memories lingerin' on

        F                   B7
Boyish laughter rings out clear

        C                 A7
And it seems you must be near

 D7                    Dm7
Footsteps sound and I look around
G9 Gaug9 And I look to see if you are here
 C                 E7
You still claim a part

         F               A7b9    A7
Of that hopeful place I call my heart

 Dm            A7           Dm      G
Hopeless is a word I never learned

           F                   B7
Though my head knows what is true

            C                     A7
That we've seen the very last of you

    D7                     Dm7
My heart won't listen, it just keeps missin'
G Gaug7 That lovin' boy that it once knew
 C               E7
You will always be

                 F
You will always be

                  A7b9    A7
Somewhere deep inside of me

    Dm             A7
I know it, yes I know it

       Dm      G
I can feel it
BRIDGE:
     Am                           E7
     I ain't no prophet claimin' doom now

                                   Am
     Somehow I never learned the knack

      C                           E7
     You got a boy, you give him room now

                       Dm                           G    Gaug7
     And then there's nothin' ever gonna bring him back, oh

 C        E7
You are still my boy

       F                         A7b9 A7
Even though, even though you're gone now

Dm           A7                Dm
I hear your laughter lingerin' on

                      G
I hear it, yes it's true

        F             B7
And no matter what I do

            C                         A7
No matter where, no matter where I'm goin' to

     Dm              G
I'll always have my memories

     Em              A7
I'll always have my memories

     Dm              G           F
I'll always have my memories of you

    C
Of you
