G                                        D 
Got a big leather suitcase...all I own is inside 
C     
seems I've been walkin' for days...can't even bum a ride 
G                                D  
try steppin' to a tune...with the rhythm of a walkin' man 
C 
mind drifts like a big balloon...out of my situation at hand 
   

         G                            D                  G      D       C 
         Ain't it funny how a melody...can bring back memories 
         G                             D 
         take you to another place in time 
         C               D                               G  
         completely change your state of mind 
 

G                                                D 
Walkin' down a lonely highway...not feelin' alone 
C 
Thinkin' back when things went my way...and not the road I'm on 
G                                                     D 
Well I've been down a time or two...but it never lasts long 
C 
I can always make it through on a wing...and a prayer...and a song 
 
CHORUS 
G                    D 
It can make a right from a wrong 
G                       C 
It can make you fall in love 
G                    D 
It can get you singin' along 
                C                                           D                G                  
chase the clouds away...and make the sun shine above 
   D                G      D          C 
A melody can bring back a memory 
G                             D 
take you to another place in time 
C               D                               G 
completely change your state of mind 
   D                G       D         C   
A melody can bring back a memory 
G                             D 
take you to another place in time 
C               D                               G              D G 
completely change your state of mind.
