Precious Memories

6   6   -6   7    7  7   -6  6
Precious mem'ries, unseen angels,

 8    -8   7    7   -8  8  -8
Sent from somewhere to my soul;

 6   6   -6  7   7 7   -6   6
How they linger, ever near me,

 8   7  -8  7   8   -8  7
And the sacred past unfold.

chorus:

 9   8    9    8    8   8   -8  7
Precious mem'ries, how they linger,

 7    7 -8  7  -8   7  8  7
How they ever flood my so-ul;

6   6   -6   7   7   7  -6   6
In the stillness of the midnight,

 8   7    -8  7    8    -8  7
Precious, sacred scenes un-fold.

verse 2:
Precious father, loving mother,
fly across the lonely years;
And old home scenes of my childhood
In fond memory appear.

verse 3:
In the stillness of the midnight,
Echoes from the past I hear;
Oldtime singing, gladness bringing,
From the lovely land somewhere.

verse 4:
As I travel on life's pathway,
Know not what the years may hold;
As I ponder, hope grows fonder,
Precious mem'ries flood my soul.
