Tuning: E A D G B E
[Intro]
G A D
[Verse 1]
GStopped by that hoAuse on Ezma LaDke
GSittin in his eAasy chair, watchin the SuDnday eveAning raGce
GTells me my graAndmas in the other roDom
GGuess he forgot we laAid her down, bDe a yeAar come JuGne
[Chorus]
GThen he mumbles about Vietnam, hAe don’t know who the hell I am
But the drBmivers, well he teAlls me who they aGre
GHe still knows the numAbers on the caDrs
[Verse 2]
GTry to get him oAut like we used tDo
Now I lGoad the truck and I drAive the boat, cause their aDin’t much Ahe can Gdo
GCast him a line and waAtched it as it saDnk
Thinkin how he uGsed to talk for houArs, now hDe just stAares at the baGnk
[Chorus]
GHe used to know every stump in this fishin hole
ANow he probably thinks we’re in Mexico, but he kBmnows his way aroAund that boat, eGven in the dark
GHe still knows the nuAmbers on the cDars
[Hook]
Well no he aiGn’t all there, but AI don’t care
My miDnds still full of memAories of hGim
And he mGay not know all the woArds to the songs
But he knDows Merle Haggards voAice when he heGars it
[Verse 3]
GStopped by that hoAuse on Ezma lDake
GWith a couple of tAickets to go see a SuDnday evAening rGace
GAs we watched those cAars fly around the trDack
GI asked the Lord for jAust one more time to brDing my oAld friend bGack
[Chorus]
GThen somewhere around lap 23, the oAld man turned and smiled at me
And for a moBmment, I know heA knows where we aGre
GCause he still knows the nuAmbers
GHe still knows the numAbers
GHe still knows the nuAmbers on the cDars
