Jake La Botz - used to be (tabs and lyrics by Nickey Whitfield)
(Capo on 3 fret)
Basically - -
I used to have a woman in my home
Long long time ago
And I still recall that gal
Though she's been a long time gone
She might have stayed
But what I had to give
Was more like love
Now all I have
Is a used to be and ain't no more
I used to have music in my home
Long long time ago
And I still recall that song
Though it's been a long time gone
I try to sing it yet
But it comes out in soughs and moans
And now all I have
Is a used to be and ain't no more
Well, there used to be pictures upon the wall
And there used to be kids runnin' round in the hall
And there used to be more than just one chair
Cause when I had friends they would visit me here
And there used to be a cross made of gold
Hanging on the mirror that I since broke
But now all I have
Is a used to be and ain't no more
They used to bring mail to my home
Long long time ago
And I still recall those letters
Though they've been a long time gone
But how can they bring the mail
When the numbers on the house are gone
And now all I have
Is a used to be and ain't no more
I used to have a bible in my home
A long long time ago
And I still recall that book
Though it's been a long time gone
And it's been so long since I called the lord
I'm afraid he won't respond
And now all I have
Is a used to be and ain't no more
