If your mem'ry serves you well,
8   -8   -8   7   -8 -8 -8  -8   -9
We were goin' to meet again and wait,
-9  8    8   8   8 8    8  8    8 
So I'm goin' to unpack all my things
-8  -8   7 -6  6   7   -6   -6
And sit before it gets too late.
8   8  8  9   8   -10  8   8 
No man alive will come to you
 8    8 8 8   9   8   8
With another tale to tell,
 8   8   8    8   9    8   -10  8  8
But you know that we shall meet again
-8  7   -8  7   -6     6   -6
If your mem'ry serves you well.
 -8   -8     -6  -6
This wheel's on fire,
 7  7    7    7   -8
Rolling down the road,
 -8  8 8 -8 -8  7   7   7
Best notify my next of kin,
 7     7    -8   -8  8
This wheel shall explode!

If your mem'ry serves you well,
8 -8   -8   7  -8 -8 -8    -8  -9
I was goin' to confiscate your lace,
 8   8   8  8  8  8  8  8     8 
And wrap it up in a sailor's knot
-8   -8  7  7   -6   -6
And hide it in your case.
8  8  8    8   9    8  -10  8    8
If I knew for sure that it was yours . . .
 8   8  8  8  8   9   8   8  
But it was oh so hard to tell.
 8   8   8    8   9    8   -10  8  8
But you knew that we would meet again,
-8  7   -8  7   -6     6   -6
If your mem'ry serves you well.

This wheel's on fire,

Rolling down the road,

If your mem'ry serves you well,

You'll remember you're the one
 8      8   8  8  8   8   8   8     
That called on me to call on them
-8 -8   7   -6   7 -6   -6
To get you your favors done.
 8   8 8  9  8  -10   8    8
And after ev'ry plan had failed
 8    8    8   8  8    9   8   8
And there was nothing more to tell,
 8   8    8   9    8   -10  8  8
You knew that we would meet again,
-8  7   -8  7   -6     6   -6
If your mem'ry served you well.
