[Intro]
Em7 A D

[Verse]
D
There you stand in front of me a perfect stranger
Em7
Yet it seems as though I've known you all my life
A A7sus4 A
I remember years ago there was another
Em7 A D
I remember how I lost her with a lie
D
Then I heard she got married down in Georgia
Em7 A
And she had a baby girl before she died
A7sus4 A A7sus4 A
You don't even have to tell me who you are
Em7 A D
Cause you look just like her memory in my mind

[Chorus]
D
I can see your mother's eyes each time I look at you
Em7 A
I can hear your mother's voice each time you speak
A7sus4 A A7sus4 A
When you smile the smile exactly like she used to do
Em7 A7 D* F#m* Bm* A*
It takes me back to nineteen sixty-three
D
Everything you do reminds me of her memory
Em7 A
It's as though she's still just standing by my side
A7sus4 A A7sus4 A
And it's hard to hold these feelings deep inside of me
Em7 A D
When I look at you and see your mother's eyes

[Solo]
Em7 A D

[Verse]
D
You say you've got someone who really needs you
Em7 A
Your love for him is showing in your eyes
A7sus4 A A7sus4 A
Please forgive these tears that I've been looking through
Em7 A D
But it's just like losing her a second time

[Chorus]
D
I can see your mother's eyes each time I look at you
Em7 A
I can hear your mother's voice each time you speak
A7sus4 A A7sus4 A
When you smile the smile exactly like she used to do
Em7 A7 D* F#m* Bm* A*
It takes me back to nineteen sixty-three
