[Verse 1]

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

I read some old love letters right up 'til the break of dawn

Yeah I've been settin' alone diggin' up bones


[Verse 2]

Then I went to the jewelery and I found our wedding rings

I've put mine on my finger and I gave yours a fling

Across this lonely bedroom of our recent broken home

Yeah tonight I'm settin' alone diggin' up bones


[Chorus]

I'm diggin' up bones, I'm diggin' up bones

Exhumin' things that's better left alone

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

Yeah, tonight I'm settin' alone diggin' up bones


[Verse 3]

And I went to the closet and I found some things in there

Like that pretty negligee that I bought you to wear

And I recall how good you looked each time you had it on

Yeah tonight I'm settin' alone diggin' up bones


[Chorus]

I'm diggin' up bones, I'm diggin' up bones

Exhumin' things that's better left alone

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

Yeah tonight I'm settln' alone diggin' up bones


[Bridge]

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

Yeah tonight I'm settin' alone diggin' up bones


[Chorus]

I'm diggin' up bones

Exhumin' things that better left alone

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

Yeah tonight I'm settin' alone diggin' up bones


[Outro]

I'm diggin' up bones

Exhumin' things that better left alone

I'm resurrectin' memories of love that's dead and gone

Yeah, tonight I'm settin' alone diggin' up bones
