This is a great song from the near universally-loathed direct-to-video Captain
America movie from 1990.
I saw it as a young child and never forgot the chorus, so I thought I would try a tab.
The song was never released outside the movie, so the instrumental intro and fade-
out are obscured a bit by dialogue and sound effects.
The body of the song, however, is pretty correct. Get in a Bob Seger mindset
before you play it :-)
Piano intro:
(x3)
Verse 1:
A million years, a million tears
A long, long time ago
There was a time, a special place
But where I just don t know
Pre-chorus:
I m all alone in a cold, cold world
It s hard, but I m still trying
I got to find that special girl
To warm this heart of mine
Chorus:
All I know is what my heart keeps saying
All these memories, memories of you girl
Searching, searching, trying to remember
All these memories, memories of you girl
Interlude:
Whoa I know
I know
Verse 2:
I keep on looking, till I see your face
Wherever that may be
I m going somewhere there s a wonderful love
Waiting just for me
Pre-chorus:
Trying to remember, but I just can t forget
Feel like a stranger in my home town
I look around for a familiar face
Is there anyone still around?
Chorus 2:
And all I know is what my heart keeps saying
All these memories, memories of you girl
I m still searching, trying to remember
All these memories, memories of you girl
Outro/fade:
Memories of you
Oh...
Sha la la la la la la la
Memories of you
