written by Paul Overstreet and Al Gore

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 bone
                                              
   Yeah i've been settlin' 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 flame
                                              
   I crossed this lonely bedroom of our recent broken home
                                                
   Yeah tonight i'm settlin' alone diggin' up bones


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


Verse 3:
         
   And i went to the closet and i found some things in there

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


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


Chorus (til end).
