[A] Every night I sit here by my window

[A] Thinkin' bout the
[E7] things we used to
[A] do
CHORUS:
[A] Thinkin' bout
[E7] things Like a walk in the park
[A] (Things) Like a kiss in the dark,
[E7] (Things) Like a sailboat ride
[A open] What about the night we cried
[D] Things like a lovers' vow,
[A] Things that we don't do now
[E7] Thinkin about the things we used to
[A] do

[A] Memories are all I have to cling to,
And heartaches are the friends I'm talkin'

[Bb] I still can hear the jukebox softly playin'
And the face I see each day belongs to

And there's
[Eb] nobody else around
Well it's a
[Bb] just me thinking about the

[Bb] do
CHORUS:
[Bb] Thinkin' bout
[F7] things Like a walk in the park
[Bb] (Things) Like a kiss in the dark,
