Scars And Souvenirs

D D G D It's been 15 some odd years since we lost Aunt Lil A A7 Plays Russian Roulette with memories nothin' but time to k**l D G He's too old to work his cattle and too stubborn to stay in bed A D And each mornin' over coffee, he turns to her picture and he says G "Oh I've been better D I've been worse a time or two D A I got two bloodshot eyes D7 And that's enough to see me through G D Fair to middlin' considerin' A G D Life's mostly scars and souvenirs" D G D There's wrinkles on his face and wrinkles on his clothes A A7 And he wears a little thinner as each day unfolds D G He swears he'll live forever just to spite his health A D But it takes Christian Brother's brandy to reassure himself G "Oh I've been better D I've been worse a time or two D A I got two bloodshot eyes D7 And that's enough to see me through G D Fair to middlin' considerin' A G D Life's mostly scars and souvenirs" Instrument Break D A picture is worth a thousand words G D And money made is money spent Bless us oh Lord, for these thy gifts A A7 I know not where they went D Now the postman brings his pension G And the county brings his meals And I drop by from time to time A D To ask him how he feels G "Oh I've been better D I've been worse a time or two D A I got two bloodshot eyes D7 And that's enough to see me through G D Fair to middlin' considerin' A G D Life's mostly scars and souvenirs" A G D Life's mostly scars and souvenirs
