[Intro]
C Am Em G Dm Bb F
 
[Verse 1]
C
First
                 Am
We should call a truce
     Em
This time
  G                   Dm            Bb F
Forgive me now, we're left behind
C
Stow
              Am
Everything we know
  Em
Along
             G                   Dm
Through your father's eyes, your mother's smile
 
[Chorus]
Bb         Cm                Gm
Send these memories down the line
    Eb           Bb
For future generations
           Cm                Gm
Send these memories down the line
    Eb               F
And let them know we tried
Eb             Bb
Lessons locked inside
            Gm  F  Eb
For them to find
                                  Bb G
Send these memories down the line
 
[Verse 2]
     C
They gave
                  Am
All they tried to save
     Em
From themselves
     G                    Dm
With remedies, from history
C
Pride
                    Am
All the things they tried
         Em
It never worked
G                     Dm
Experience, is all we keep
 
[Chorus]
Bb         Cm                Gm
Send these memories down the line
    Eb         Bb
Our trials and tribulations
           Cm                Gm
Send these memories down the line
    Eb               F
And let them know we tried
               Bb
Lessons locked inside
            Gm    Eb
For them to find
 
Send these memories down the line

Send these memories down the line
Eb             F
Lessons locked inside

Give them, a fighting chance
