How I Love Them Old Songs

How I Love Them Old Songs
by Carl Smith
 
G                     D7
Doggone my soul how I love them old songs
                                     G
They were a comfort to me when I was alone
                          D7
The dancing stops but the music goes on
                                    G
Doggone my soul how I love them old songs
 
                            D7
Now when I hear that double eagle guitar
                                           G
It makes me think how trouble free girl we are
                            D7
There was a time I spent my nights in a bar
                                                    G
Playing that old jukebox until the honky tonk locks up
 
                               D7
Now doggone my mind just won't leave me alone
                                      G
Keeps on reminding me I'm so far from home
                                     D7
Those heart breaking aching eggs and bacon country songs
 
They take me back to hardwood floors 
                         G
Out door johns and mason jars
 
                     D7
It's all I can do to believe that it's gone
                                                   G
That hard knocking rock and rolling life that I've known
                                D7
But the dancing is over and the music must go on
                                    G
Doggone my soul how I love them old songs
