verse
C
Somewhere in my wooden hope-chest waiting
                        F
far across the universe
                           Am                       F
behind a pile of rags, that wipe the make-up away
Dm                         G7
soaked in tears for a day
 
      C
A line from a postcard written rubbish
                              F
postdated 4 years ago
                    Am                           F
It is your handwriting, U never gave your word
                          Dm
the paper said U loved me
               Am                   A9
I didn't know.... I didn't know
 
chorus:
           F                                     C
That time plays tricks on the memory
          Am                                           F 
your rotten acts of punishment have left the scene
        Dm
and now I
Ddim
Aye
F                            C
Remember U As Gold

verse
       C
As often as a red light flashing brightly
                                   F
U follow me thru my sleep
         Am                  F
In a garden, tulips close their eyes
                            Dm                         G7
while the other Heathers like up in a row
 
C
Convince me your much better, grown up, Adult
                                           F
Pleading give us one more try
                    Am
I want to believe in U
                      F
But I have grown up too
           Dm                        Am
Then I kiss U, and say good-bye
            A9
I said Good-bye
 
Chorus:

  F                                     C
That time plays tricks on the memory
          Am                                           F 
your rotten acts of punishment have left the scene
        Dm
and now I
Ddim
Aye
Dm
Oh  I
Ddim
Aye
Dm                        Am
Remember U As Gold
