Precious Memories (Melody Maker)

-2 -2 3 4 4 4 3 -2
Pre-cious mem-ries, un-seen an-gels,

5 -4 4 4 4 5 -4
Sent from somewhere to my soul;

-2 -2 3 4 4 4 3 -2
How they lin-ger, ev-er near me,

5 4 -4 4 5 -4 4
And the sa-cred past un-fold.

chorus
6 5 6 5 5 5 -4 4
Pre-cious mem-ries, how they lin-ger,

4 4 -4 4 -4 4 5 4
How they ev-er flood my soul;

-2 -2 3 4 4 4 3 -2
In the still-ness of the mid-night,

5 4 -4 4 5 -4 4
Pre-cious, sa-cred 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 that 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.
