“Emerald City Memories”

Full Song Lyrics:
[Intro]
(Am) (F) (C) (G)

[Verse 1]
(Am) Rain-soaked streets, (F) where we used to meet,
(C) Echoes of laughter, (G) moments to gather.
(Am) Painted walls, (F) and endless halls,
(C) Our echoes bounce, (G) as we announce.

[Chorus]
(Am) Emerald City memories, (F) in our hearts they’ll always be.
(C) Through the highs and the lows, (G) wherever we go.
(Am) Through the rain, (F) through the pain,
(C) These Emerald City memories, (G) they’ll always remain.

[Verse 2]
(Am) Late-night shows, (F) and neon glows,
(C) The music, the crowd, (G) everything’s so loud.
(Am) The city’s ours, (F) under the stars,
(C) We ride the night, (G) with all our might.

[Chorus]
(Am) Emerald City memories, (F) in our hearts they’ll always be.
(C) Through the highs and the lows, (G) wherever we go.
(Am) Through the rain, (F) through the pain,
(C) These Emerald City memories, (G) they’ll always remain.
