[Verse 1]
  G                      C
Today the weather was so   pretty

   D7                    G
At noon I went out for a stroll

  G          G7              C
I walked and did some window   shopping

    D7                    G
And met someone I used to know
[Verse 2]
    C                          G
The years have been kind to her beauty

     C       A7             D7
When I first saw her my heart jumped

  G                   C
Tonight if I seem disenchanted

  D7               G
I took a memory to lunch
[Verse 3]
   G                        C
We sat and talked about the old days

     D7                   G
With misty teardrops in our eyes

    G    G7               C
And reconfirmed an old suspicion

    D7                       G
The past grows old but never dies
[Verse 4]
    C                             G
The charm that draws two hearts together

   C      A7               D7
By four o'clock was just too much

    G                       C
The days and years we had between us

     D7                    G       D#7
Were down to just two coffee cups
[Verse 5]
    G#                      C#
You can't relive life in an hour

    D#7                    G#
The afternoon kept wearing on

    G#    G#7             C#
I'm sorry that I'm late for dinner

  D#7              G#
I took a memory to lunch
