Some I Wrote
D
Some day when it`s all over,
G D
And they come to carry me.
Bm
And you`re walkin` slow and wearin' black
Em A
With the rest of the family.
D
And the choir stands to sing a song,
G D
Make sure it`s one of mine.
Bm
I had a few more tunes
I wanted to write,
Em D
But I ran out of time.
D G
Some I wrote for money, Some I wrote for fun.
D Bm Em A
Some I wrote and threw away, never sang to any one.
D G
One I wrote for mama and a couple still aren`t through.
D Bm Em D
I`ve lost track of all the rest, but the most I wrote for you.
D
That day when it`s all over,
G D
And you`re sittin` all alone.
Bm
They'll call ask what you want.
Em A
to have written on my stone.
D
Tell them when I was born and died,
G D
The year and the day,
Bm
and If there`s room for something more,
Em D
Here`s what you can say.
D G
Some he wrote for money, Some he wrote for fun.
D Bm Em A
Some he wrote and threw away, never sang to any one.
D G
One he wrote for his mama and never finished two or three
D Bm Em D
He lost track of all the rest, but the most he wrote for me
