She’s just an old love turned memory
by Charley Pride
[(1977)]
I called her today, an accidental mistake
And her name slipped out to some friends
Forgotten old feelings are brand new today
‘Cause I’m right back where I’ve always been

Now, she’s just an old love turned memory
And now I seldom see her around
She’s just an old love turned memory
But she still turns my world upside down

I went to some places where I knew she’d be
Just to prove our love was over and done
But the moment hereyes meet mine I knew
My sorrow had only begun

So, she’s just an old love turned memory
Now I seldom see her around
She’s just an old love turned memory
But she still turns my world upside down
But she still turns my world upside down

Capo 2

Verse 1

When she wakes up this morning and turns to kiss me
She’ll find I let her sleep because we talked do late last night
She’ll know kissed her face gently til my returning
And when she finds the rose on my pillow I know she’ll smile

Chorus

Her amazing love unending
Is so much more than I am worthy of
If the rose could speak my feelings
She’ll know I cherish her amazing love

Verse 2

If I call her a little late she forgives me
A voice does not betray she spent another day alone
She softly thanks me for the rose and says I need you
And than I can feel her smiling on the phone

Chorus

Her amazing love unending
Is so much more than I am worthy of
If the rose could speak my feelings
She’ll know I cherish her amazing love

Wonder Could I Live There Anymore
(1970)
(Charley Pride)

Have you ever been awaken by the crowing of a rooster
While the night dew is still heavy on the ground

And the voice of Uncle Ben

Seems to break the morning silence
Bringing light to windows all around

It’s time to rise and shine start another hard work day
Get the cows in and start the milking chores
It’s nice to think about it maybe even visit
But I wonder could I live there any–more

( steel – guitar )

Something bout the smell of cornbread

Cooking on a wood stove
Seems to bring a picture to my mind

Of a little three room house with mama in the kitchen
But she can’t stop to talk ain’t got the time

She’s a fixing dad his supper he’s a working over time
Trying to pay our bill at the grocery store
It’s nice to think about it maybe even visit
But I wonder could I live there any–more

( steel – guitar )

As I think about my childhood and of my old hometown
I don’t really miss ‘em like before
It’s nice to think about it maybe even visit
But I wonder could I live there anymore

Capo 2

Intro G C

Down at the railroad station there’s people getting off
Some are going north and some are going south
I’m just going to be gone
Some people are born to be takers others just want to give
Some people live just to love I just love to live

Oh I was justborn to be exactly what you see
Nothing more or less in other words for the best
I just try to be exactly what you see
Today and everyday I’m just me

Break

When people say that life is rough I wonder compared to what
Some are wanting more and mores are getting less
I just want what I got
Some want to live on a hill others down by the sea
Some want to live inside my walls I just want to live free

Oh I was justborn to be exactly what you see
Nothing more or less in other words for the best
I just try to be exactly what you see
Today and everyday I’m just me

………Oh I was just born to be exactly what you see today and
everyday I’m just me

“I’d Rather Love You”

Capo 2

Into

Verse

If tonight could be our last night together
I’m not sorry that we fell in love at all
If tomorrow’s sun should find me hurting for you.
I know
That the price for loving you would still be small

Chorus

For I’d never know the thrill of your sweet lips
And the chill I get just knowing that you’re mine
Cause I’d spend my life not knowing what real love is
Oh no
Oh I’d be hurting, I’m still certain
That I’d rather love and lose you
Than never know your love at all

Break

Chorus

For I’d never know the thrill of your sweet lips
And the chill I get just knowing that you’re mine
Cause I’d spend my life not knowing what real love is
Oh no
Oh I’d be hurting, I’m still certain
That I’d rather love and lose you
Than never know your love at all

Yes I’d rather love and lose you
Than never know your love at all
