C
it's been a couple months..
G/B Am
that's just about enough time..
G F
for me to stop cryin'
Em
when i look at all the pictures
now i kinda smile,
Dm G
i haven't felt that in a while..
C
it's late, i hear the door
G/B Am
bell ringin' and it's pourin'..
G F
i open up that door,
Em
see your brown eyes at the entrance
you just wanna talk and
Dm G
i can't turn away a wet dog..
C G/B Am
but please don't ruin this for me
G F
please don't make it harder
Em
than it already is
Dm G
i'm trying to get over this..
[Reff]
C G/B
i wish that you would stay
in my memories..
Am G
but you showed up today,
just to ruin things
F Em
i wanna put you in the past
cause i'm traumatized
Dm G
but you're not lettin' me do that,
cause tonight
C
you're all drunk in my kitchen,
G/B
curled in the fetal position
Am
too busy playin' the victim
G
to be listenin' to me
F
when i say, i wish that you
Em
would stay in my memories..
Dm G
in my memories, stay in my memories..
C
now i can't say goodbye..
G/B Am
if you stay here the whole night..
G F
you see, it's hard to find an end
Em
to somethin' that you keep beginning
over and over again
Dm
i promise that the ending
G
always stays the same
C
so there's no good reason
G/B
in make believin'
Am G
that we could ever exist again
F
i can't be your friend,
can't be your lover
Em
can't be the reason
we hold back each other
Dm
from falling in love..
G C
with somebody other than me
[Reff]
C G/B
i wish that you would stay
in my memories..
Am G
but you showed up today,
just to ruin things
F Em
i wanna put you in the past
cause i'm traumatized
Dm G
but you're not lettin' me do that,
cause tonight
C
you're all drunk in my kitchen,

F

Dm G
in my memories, stay in my memories..
F Fm
since you came..
C E
i guess i'll let you stay..
F Fm
for as long as it takes
C G/B
to grab your books and your coat
Am G
and that one good cologne
E F
that you bought when we were fighting
C G/B
cause it's still on my clothes,
Am G
everything that i own
E F
and it makes me feel like dying
E F
i was barely just surviving..
[Reff]
C G/B
i wish that you would stay
in my memories..
Am G
but you showed up today,
