Diggin' Up Bones
By Randy Travis
[Verse]
E
Last night I dug your picture out from our old dresser drawer
E
I set it on the table and I talked to it til four
E A E
I read some old love letters right up til the break of dawn
E B7 E
Yeah, tonight I’m sittin alone diggin up bones
E
Then I went through the jewelry and I found our wedding rings
E
I put mine on my finger and I gave yours a fling
E A E
across this lonely bedroom of our recent broken home
E B7 E
Yeah, tonight I’m sittin alone diggin up bones
[Chorus]
E
I'm a diggin up bones, I'm diggin up bones
E B7
Exhuming things that's better left alone
E A E
I'm resurrecting memories of a love that's dead and gone
E B7 E
Yeah tonight I'm sittin alone diggin up bones
[Verse]
E
And I went through the closet and I found some things in there
E
like that pretty neglige that I bought you to wear
E A E
And I recall how good you looked each time you had it on
E B7 E
Yeah tonight I'm sittin alone diggin up bones
[Chorus]
E
I'm a diggin up bones, I'm diggin up bones
E B7
Exhuming things that's better left alone
E A E
I'm resurrecting memories of a love that's dead and gone
E B7 E
Yeah tonight I'm sittin alone diggin up bones
E E B7 E A E E B7 E
E A E
I'm resurrecting memories of a love that's dead and gone
E B7 E
Yeah tonight I'm sittin alone diggin up bones
[Chorus]
E
I'm a diggin up bones, I'm diggin up bones
E B7
Exhuming things that's better left alone
E A E
I'm resurrecting memories of a love that's dead and gone
E B7 E
Yeah tonight I'm sittin alone diggin up bones
[Chorus]

I'm a diggin up bones, I'm diggin up bones
E B7
Exhuming things that's better left alone

I'm resurrecting memories of a love that's dead and gone
