Capo 1st Fret
Verse 1
A F#m
Nickles and dimes, memories and wine
D E
She's on his mind once again
A F#m
The same ole' stew, the same ole' fool
D E
Played by the rules but didn't win
Bm E
There's an old love in his heart that he can't lose
Bm E
He tried forgettin' but he knows that it's no use
Chorus:
A E D
He's got a fool hearted memory
Bm E
It won't let him see, that she walked out the door
A E D Bm
He's got a fool hearted memory, he sits patiently
E A
Here every night so it can fool him more
Verse 2
A F#m
She was his girl, his only world
D E
That string of pearls that slipped away
A F#m
A thousand dimes, a thousand times
D E
He doesn't mind what they say
Bm E
He fills the jukebox, then plays the same ole' song
Bm E
He fills his glass and then he turns her memory on
repeat chorus.
