I Just Came Home To Count The Memories

I Just Came Home To Count The Memories
recorded by Cal Smith
written by Glenn Ray

Intro C F C

C
I saw roses choking in the grass
F                                 C
Flaking paint and a broken window pane
                                 Am
A mailbox barely standing by the driveway
                     G7
I can almost see the name
  
  F
A swing set and forgotten toys where
                                   C
Little boys and girls played happy games
                                  G7
Everything I gave a damn about is gone
                     C
But the memory still remains
 
                                      F
The old man from the house across the street asked
                          C
How's it going and I said fine
                                         Am
The expression on his face would make me think
                        G7
He could almost read my mind
 
     F
That Johnson boy from down the road was asking
                           C
If the kids could come and play
                                         G7
Lord I wish I could have told him yes but I
                          C
Just said I guess son not today
 
                    C7        F
I just came home to count the memories
G7                            C
That I've been counting in my mind
                              F
I just came home to count the memories
G7                    C
From a better day and time
 
       
Birds that sang their pretty songs
F                                          C
Aren't singing like they did when you were here
                                       Am
Cause there's no happiness in music if somebody
                      G7
Isn't close enough to care
 
  F
I picked a ragged daisy from it's home
                         C
Out in the corner of the yard
                              G7
She loves me she loves me not now I don't
                  C
Have to wonder anymore
 
              C7        F
I just came home to count the memories
G7                            C
That I've been counting in my mind
                              F
I just came home to count the memories 
G7                       C
I guess it's time to say goodbye
