SILVER MEDALS & SWEET MEMORIES
written by Don Reid
sung by the Statler Brothers
from the Best of Rides Again, Volume 2 (1979)

E - - - B7 - - - E / / / 2 /
               B7   E                A            E
Just a picture on a table, just some letters Mama saved
            B7          E            F#m               B7
& a costume brooch from England that has on the back engraved
    E B7      E                 A  E
"To Eileen, I love you, London, 1943"
              B7         E            F#m      B7       E
But she never heard from him again, & he never heard of me

CHORUS:
                      B7       E
& the war still ain't over for Mama
      A                             B
Every night in her dreams she still sees
    E             B7          E
The young face of someone who brought her
       A        B7        E
Silver medals & sweet memories

Verse 2:
In Mama's bedroom closet, to this day on her top shelf
There's a flag folded 3-cornered, layin' by itself
The sergeant would surely be honored to know how pretty she still is
& after all these lonely years, his Eileen still lives

(chorus, then repeat its last line)
