A Memory Lost In A Song by Jim Kenyon



Verse 1




[G]There was a time that I called you


There was a time that I called you [C] mine


Not a day passes by when you're [G] nobody special


Woman [D] don't you know, you were [C]always on my [G] mind




.


Verse 2




[G]There was a time when I held you


There was a time I held you all night [C] long


never more than a moment a[G]way from my heart


but now it's [D] only a memory that's [C]lost in a [G] song




.


chorus


[C]I miss you a little too much, and a lot too [G] often


[C] Seems my heart has found a million [G] ways


[C] I wonder how you are, do you miss me at[G] all ?



oh I [D] just can't let [C] go of all our yester[G]days




.


Verse 3




[G]There was a time when I loved


There was a time when I loved how you made me [C] feel


I can close my eyes to what I [G]don't want to see


but it[D] seems that some [C]hurts just never [G] heal




.


chorus




[C]I miss you a little too much, and a lot too [G] often


[C] Seems my heart has founda million [G] ways


[C] I wonder how you are, do you miss me at[G] all ?


oh I [D] just can't let [C] go of all our yester[G]days.


oh I [D] just can't let go [C]of all our yester[G]days


oh I [D] just can't let go [C]of all our yester[G]days

Nice find !  I really got into a few of these songs this morning.
Love the passion he plays and sings with ( especially in "It's still rainin  ") - makes every word believable - so essential to the blues.
Thanks for sharing - got my weekend off to a great start !

OMG THat looks like so much fun.  I wish I could sing and play -  I think i'd have a blast.
Thae dancer was actually pretty interesting

That is a cool song for sure, I can see why it was the mantra !

Love it Phill

  Your playing and singing are excellent as usual. 
I'm sure this situation arises a thousand times a day in people's lives, and choices have to be made.
Great song my friend.

Jim     

Cg - Thanks- That isn't me -- its a friend of mine Jim Cristaldi  recording my song.     

Here is my song - Here I Stand.
Hope you like it.

The clip "The traveler" was outstanding.
Loved how the explained the guitar, showed the production side. I would also love to have that garage and all those guitrs - it must be what JJJ's garage looked like at some point ( less the bread machine of course) smile
The song was terrific.

The song " I want a Woman like you"  was also fantastic.   The video is really well done.

His "While we cry" is a beautiful rendition - such passion - came from his heart for sure.
The "Boy with the broken heart" is awesome -  the other singer {Noah) has a fantastic voice and brings passion to the song in his performance- super solo by KWS as well.

I had never heard of him before - but I sure will listen to him a lot more now - this music is right up comfort zone. Thanks for the enlightenment.

Keep the good stuff coming !

some really good lines in this one  I sense some bitterness there!
There a couple I don't understand - but that doesn't mean they aren't great - I just didn't get it.
I'm not     sure how to play it though. Is this a "metalizer" song ?

The BM and F#  kill me - I don't even know how to play them

I will look forward to hearing this one.

Sadly,
I lost my brother yesterday- 86 years old. Today my cell phone went off and it came up his number calling, - chilled me for a moment - it was his wife calling me on his phone.
Good song Jeff

Impressive !

It's too bad we have such a cynical view of the world.  The media sensationalizes everything that is wrong and basically ignores good people and good things.
Your lyrics capture that exactly - I love your last two lines - they are spot on!
Your song sounds great !
It reminds of a lute player playing for the court in the Renaissance - updating the king on the news!

I have added a verse as I was actually inspired by Graham's run through of the song - it just felt like something was missing to me - although he played it fantastically.     I know it makes it  long song - but it was important tome to me to have it in there -  and I tweaked a couple of lines.  I think the G7 connection to the next line that follows also adds to it

The more I listen to this song the better it gets - it's addicting to the male ego I think !  smile
Probably not going to be the theme song at the next me too movement rally ! smile

Peale   That is great - superb lyric!!   As I was listening to it - somehow an image of the All Blacks doing a haka popped into my head with them all smashing their phones at the end !

Great music CG

I enjoyed it a lot

I have to say I was giggling a bit on the working class blues song when the camera showed his right side and his arm was jiggling - it made the lady in his tatto look like she was really shaking it to !! smile  smile  smile

But the dude can really play - good stuff !
