         C
   Last night i dug your picture out from my old dresser drawer

   I set it on the table and i talked to it 'til four
                                                F
   I read some old love letters right up 'til the break of bone
             C                    G               C  
   Yeah i've been settlin' alone diggin' up bones


         C  
   Then i went to the jewelery and i found our wedding rings

   I've put mine on my finger and i gave yours a flame
                                              F
   I crossed this lonely bedroom of our recent broken home
                C                   G               C  
   Yeah tonight i'm settlin' alone diggin' up bones


Chorus:
         C  
   I'm diggin' up bones,i'm diggin' up bones
                                           G
   Exhuming things that better left alone
             C                        F
   I'm resurrecting memories of love that's dead and gone
                C                  G               C  
   Yeah tonight i'm settlin' alone diggin' up bones


         C  
   And i went to the closet and i found some things in there

   Like that pretty neglige that i bought you to wear
                                               F
   And i recall how good you looked each time you had it on
                C                   G               C  
   Yeah tonight i'm settlin' alone diggin' up bones


Chorus.
             C                        F
   I'm resurrecting memories of love that's dead and gone
                C                  G               C  
   Yeah tonight i'm settlin' alone diggin' up bones
