Some Memories Are Better Left Alone

	  		Some Memories Are Better Left Alone    

A          C#7          D                 Bm   
A solitary whippoorwill is singing in the night  
E7                                 D      E              A   E  A 
I watch until he spreads his wings and he sails into the sky 
                 C#7            D                Bm                     
Somewhere in the distance I can hear his painful song  
        A                 E7            A  
He said some memories are better left alone  

Have you ever seen a freight train rolling down the track  
Eighty wheels on a thread of steel never looking back  
Even when I was young it still chilled me to the bone  
Yes some memories are better left alone  

       D           D            Bm              G#dim   
Do you ever have a longing for a pure and simple time  
     A             F#m            D                  E7 
When all we had between us was a dream and one thin dime  
            A               C#7            D                Bm   
And we were flat out on the highway with no place to be but gone  
     A                 E7            A 
Yes, some memories are better left alone  

Well I feel just like that whippoorwill singing in the night  
Trying once again to sleep I turn out the light  
Lying in the darkness I am waiting for the dawn  
Yes some memories are better left alone  

A                 C#7      D               Dm   
I am lying in the darkness waiting for the dawn  
           A            E7           D   Bm A 
Lord, some memories are better left alone
