[Intro]
D G D G
[Verse 1]
G A D Stopped by that house on Desmond Lake G A D A G Sittin in his easy chair, watchin the Sunday evening race G A D Tells me my grandmas in the other room G A D A G Guess he forgot we laid her down, it'll be a year come June
[Chorus]
G A Then he mumbles about Vietnam, he don’t know who the hell I am Bm A G But the drivers, well he tells me who they are Em A D G I guess he still knows the numbers on the cars
[Verse 2]
G A D Try to get him out like we used to G A D A G Now I load the truck and I drive the boat, cause there ain’t much he can do G A Bm Cast him a line and watched it as it sank G A D A G Thinkin how he used to talk for hours, now he just stares at the bank
[Chorus]
G He used to know every stump in this fishin hole A Bm A G Now he probably thinks that we’re in Mexico, but he knows his way around that boat, even in the dark Em A D He still knows the numbers on the cars
[Hook]
G A Well no he ain’t all there, but I don’t care Bm A G My mind's still full of memories of him G A And he may not know all the words to the songs Bm A G A But he still knows Merle Haggards voice when he hears it
[Verse 3]
G A D Stopped by that house on Desmond lake G A D A G With a couple of tickets to go see a Sunday evening race G A Bm As we watched those cars fly around the track G A D A G I asked the Lord if just one more time He'd bring my old friend back
[Chorus]
G A Then somewhere around lap 23, the old man turned and smiled at me Bm A G And for a moment, I know he knows where we are Em A Cause he still knows the numbers D G He still knows the numbers Em A D G D G He still knows the numbers on the cars
