Some I Wrote Chords

[Verse 1]
 
D
Someday when it's all over,
         G             D
And they come to carry me.
 
And you're walkin' slow and  wearin' black
         E7               A
With the rest of the family.
D
And the choir stands to sing a song,
     G                D
Make sure it's one of mine.
D
I had a few more tunes
D
I wanted to write,
    E7     A     D
But I ran out of time.
 
 
[Chorus]
 
D                       G                 D
Some I wrote for money, Some I wrote for fun.
                                   E7         A
Some I wrote and threw away, never sang to any one.
D                           G                   D
One I wrote for mama, and a couple still aren't through.
D                                        E7      A        D
I've lost track of all the rest, but the most I wrote for you.
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
     D
That day when it's all over,
           G              D
And you're settin' all alone.
 
They'll come and ask you  what you want.
        E7            A
To have written on my stone.
D
Tell'em when I was born and died,
    G            D
The year and the day,
D
And if there's room for something more
E7          A       D
Here's what you can say.
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 
D                        G                  D
Some he wrote for money, Some he wrote for fun.
                                    E7           A
Some he wrote and threw away, never sang to any one.
D                                    G               D
One he wrote for his mama, and never finished two or three
D                                      E7      A         D
He lost track of all the rest, but the most he wrote for me
 
[Chorus]
 
D                       G                 D
Some I wrote for money, Some I wrote for fun.
                                   E7         A
Some I wrote and threw away, never sang to any one.
D                           G                   D
One I wrote for mama, and a couple still aren't through.
D                                        E7      A        D
I've lost track of all the rest, but the most I wrote for you.
 
 
[Outro]
 
D                                      E7      A         D
I lost track of all the rest, but the most I wrote for you.
