Who's Gonna Know Kathy Mattea
------------------------
On the [GM7]top of my desk mid the [CM7]clutter and dust
sits an [GM7]old 5x8 black and [CM7]white
It's [GM7]one of my favorite [CM7]pictures of us
I'll [C]carry with me all my [D]life
[Am7]I must have been a-[D]bout five or [G]six
Mom's [Am]hair was still brown and [C]Dad's was still [G]thick
But to [C]look at it [Em]now some-[C]times I get [G]scared
To [C]think that some-[Em]day they [C]might not be [D]there
'Cause [C]who's gonna [D]know but [G]me
Who'll [C]help me re[D]call those [G]small mem-o-[C]ries
[Am]I'm all that's [D]left of this [G]family of [C]three
[Am]Who's gonna [D]know but [GM7]me? [CM7]
[GM7]Down in the cellar [CM7]under the steps
Sits an [GM7]old box of junk that I've [CM7]saved
[GM7]Newspaper clippings, [CM7]letters and cards
[C]Even some code-a-phone [D]tapes
[Am7]Slices of life I can [D]hold in my [G]hand
And [Am]show to my kids so they [C]might under-[G]stand
In t[C]hose years to [Em]come when they [C]ask me some [G]night
What [C]Grandma and [Em]Grandpa [C]used to be [D]like
'Cause [C]who's gonna [D]know but [G]me
Who'll [C]help me re[D]call those [G]small mem-o-[C]ries
[Am]I'm all that's [D]left of this [G]family of [C]three
[Am]Who's gonna [D]know but [G]me?
If [Bm]life were a video [CM7]I could rewind
I'd [Bm]go back and slow down each [CM7]moment in time
Then [Bm]I'd disconnect the f[C]ast forward b[G]utton
So [C]I'd have for-[G]ever to [C]tell 'em I [D]love 'em
The [C]older I [G]get, I can't [C]get enough [D]of 'em
'Cause [C]who's gonna [D]know but [G]me
Who'll [C]help me re[D]call all [G]those mem-o-[C]ries
[Am]I'm all that's [D]left of this [G]family of [C]three
[Am]Who's gonna [D]know but [G]me?
[C]Who's gonna [D]know but [G]me?
