Verse 1
C
There's a path that leads back through my memories
                                   G7
And how often I've walked it these days
        C          F               C
Where I find sweet peace among the flowers
                    G7               C
On the grassy banks beyond the river bend
Chorus 1
C
But it's on-ly a memory

Yes it's on-ly a memory my friend
C           F    C  F   C
Yes it's on-ly a me-mor-y
               G7        C
I can never go back home again

Down by the river

The sweet fragrance of flowers wend

Oh it seems life troubles and trials

Get harder and harder to mend

On the grassy banks beyond the river bend
