  No one promised this when I was a kid 
D                               Cmaj7 
  When my days were filled with carousels 
Am7                      D 
    Fairground rides and cockleshells 
D                        Cmaj7 
  Kicking pebbles on the beach 
Am7                    D 
    When time couldn't reach me 
D                       Cmaj7 
  And tears were just a memory 
Am7            D 
    Left to be lonely 

G (E) C#dim 
            Now days 
D                    Cmaj7 
  Catch me without an overcoat 
D                    Cmaj7 
  Five o'clock shoes full of snow 
Am7                  D 
    All rained out nowhere to go

Memories

C#dim 
No matter how fast you run

Gonna catch up with you

   Oh this winter sure sure gets me down 
Am7                     D 
    When there ain't no friends around
