Intro: A5  

      A5
I was going through old skeletons in my closet 
      
They were pourin&#039; out of my heart, like a leaky faucet 
                             D5                  D5
If any one of those memories ever catch up with me 
      A5                       E5            A5
There ain&#039;t no tellin&#039; what price it&#039;ll be costin&#039; 
   A5
If she finds out about Amy in Atlanta 
                        
Or the two-timin&#039;, two-steppin&#039; trouble from Texarkana 
                                   D5                       D5
All the parties in The Pines - the fightin&#039; and drinkin&#039; shine 
A5                     E5
She might think I&#039;m a one-night extravag(A)anza  
        D5       C5            A5
So, I&#039;m buryin&#039; bones by the dozen 
                                         E5
Tryin&#039; to hide the past from the one I&#039;m luvin&#039; 
     D5                    A5               D5
When I lay down to sleep, I can&#039;t rest in peace 
          A5       E5            A5
Cause I&#039;m buryin&#039; bones by the dozen 
 
Solo 
      A5
Every time the telephone rings, I get a little nervous 

So, at the end of the month, I go and I change my service 
                                                   D5                D5
And the whole town knows my truck, so when I go to work, I take the bus 
      A5                       E5                  A5
Spend half of my time lockin&#039; doors, and closin&#039; curtians 
        D5       C5            A5
So, I&#039;m buryin&#039; bones by the dozen 
                                         E5
Tryin&#039; to hide the past from the one I&#039;m luvin&#039; 
     D5                    A5               D5
When I lay down to sleep, I can&#039;t rest in peace 
          A5       E5            A5
Cause I&#039;m buryin&#039; bones by the dozen
