I DON'T LOVE YOU ANYMORE
(Bill Anderson)
« © '57 Johnny Bienstock Music, BMI »
I don't love you anymore not the way I did before
And since you've found someone new I think it's best
I don't cry and walk the floor I don't love you anymore
Trouble is I don't love you any less
I held you close to me one time kissed your lips and called you mine
Then another came and thrilled you more I guess
I cried as you walked out the door I don't love you anymore
Trouble is I don't love you any less
I don't love you anymore for I've got no more love to give
You drained my heart of all its love with every sweet caress
I keep saying o'er and o'er I don't love you anymore
Trouble is I don't love you any less
[ steel ]
I don't love you anymore for I've got no more love to give...

LONESOME 7-7203
(Justin Tubb)
« © '61 Cedarwood Publishing, BMI »
Had our number changed today although I hated to
But each time the phone would ring they'd want to speak to you
And it hurts to tell them you're not here with me
Maybe now oh telephone will let me be
It's not in the book so now you'd better write it down
Just in case your love for me should ever come around
You might want to call and break the news to me just call Lonesome 7-7203
[ piano ]
Oh I keep the telephone beside me all the time
Hoping you might want to call and say you're changed your mind
If you do then darling you know where I'll be I'm at Lonesome 7-7203
You're the only one I'm giving out new number to
So now if the telephone should ring I'll know it's you
If you ever long for love that used to be just call Lonesome 7-7203

I'M GONNA CHANGE EVERYTHING
(Alex Zanetis)
« © '62 Tree Publishing, BMI »
Yeah I'm gonna change everything that holds a mem'ry of you oh yeah
I'm gonna start in the hall take the pictures off the wall and burn 'em
Move the chairs around take the window curtains down and burn 'em
Everything I see reminds me you were here
Yeah I'm gonna change everything that holds a mem'ry of you oh yeah
The candle of your set you gave me on the night of my birthday
The records that you bought the hi-fi we used to play
The decorating man will come and rearrange them
Yeah I'm gonna change everything that holds a mem'ry of you oh yeah
Take the carpet off the floor and throw it out the door it's filled with tears
Everything I find that brings you to my mind must disappear
Every night I dream I'll dream of someone new
Yeah I'm gonna change everything that holds a mem'ry of you
Yeah I'm gonna change everything that holds a mem'ry of you oh yeah mhm oh yeah

I STILL MISS SOMEONE
(Johnny Cash - Ray Cash)
« © '58 House Of Cash, BMI / Unichappell Music, BMI »
At my door the leaves are falling the cold cold winds will come
Sweethearts walk by together and I still miss someone
I go out on wild party look for a little fun
But I find a darkened corner cause I still miss someone
Though I never got over those blue eyes I see them everywehere
I miss those arms that held me when all the love was there
Oh I wonder if she's sorry for leaving what we had begun
There's someone for me somewhere and I still miss someone
[ ac.guitar ]
There's someone for me somewhere and I still miss someone

TRY ME ONE MORE TIME
(Ernest Tubb)
« © '42 Unichappell Music, BMI »
Yes I know I've been untrue and I have hurt you through and through
But please have a mercy on this heart of mine
Take me back and try me one more time
If my darling you could see just what your leaving done to me
You'd know that love is still a tie that binds
Take me back and try me one more time
[ guitar ]
In my dreams I see your face it seems there's someone in my place
But does he know that you were once just mine
Take me back and try me one more time
If you'll just forgive me now I'll make it up to you somehow
I'll promise never again to be unkind take me back and try me one more time

LOVING YOU THEN LOSING YOU
(Wayne P.Walker - Max Powell)
« © '65 Cedarwood Publishing, BMI »
Loving you then losing you is more than I can stand
I knew we'd have some problem cause love's a crazy game
And loving you then losing you is driving me insane
Don't say that I'll forget you should you leave me behind
Cause loving you then losing you will make me lose my mind
I've spent so many nights alone more than I thought I could
But each time you'd come back to me just like a good girl should
So don't tell me it's over our love is no mistake
Cause loving you then losing you is more than I can take
[ piano ]
I've spent so many nights alone...
Loving you then losing you is more than I can take

RAINBOW AT MIDNIGHT
(Lost John Miller)
« © '52 Shapiro-Bernstein Co, ASCAP »
After the war was over I was coming home to you
I saw a rainbow at midnight out on the ocean blue
The stars in heaven were shining the moon gave its light from above
I saw your face in this rainbow it made me think of our love
[ piano ]
We'll build our home in the country and make all our dreams come true
There we will make a heaven sweetheart just for we two
Here we will live so happy and have a baby or two
We'll name them after this rainbow because it reminds me of you
After this life is over and our journey here is through
We'll move to the land of this rainbow and live in the stary blue

IT TOOK THE HEART OUT OF ME
(Webb Pierce - Max Powell)
« © '65 Cedarwood Publishing, BMI »
Well it took the heart right out of me oh when you said you wadn't free
Well I found out that you were hitch so I have to make a switch
So it took the heart right out of me
All the time I didn't know it could have been my time to go
But this never happened to me before I hope it never happens again for sure
Cause it took the heart right out of me
[ steel - piano ]
All the time I didn't know...

LET ME LIVE A LITTLE
(Wayne P.Walker - Webb Pierce)
« © '65 Cedarwood Publishing, BMI / Songs Of PolyGram, BMI »
Don't you think I've cried enough swallowed all my pride enough
Don't you think I've tried enough let me live a little
Haven't I been fool enough who that cared for you enough
Haven't I been true enough let me live a little
In a world away from you there's no life for me
Like this from day to day all those mem'ries that you left me
Open up your arms again let's be sweethearts not just friends
Won't you let forgiveness in let me live a little
In a world away from you...
Let me live a little

TOO LONG
(Charlie McCoy)
« © '65 MCA Music, ASCAP »
Too long you waited too long to come home and your lover don't need you anymore
Too long you waited so long to come home so don't knock upon my door anymore
Well you say you stayed out late swinging on that garden gate
Too long you waited too long to come home so your lover don't need you anymore
[ steel - piano ]
Too long you waited too long...
Oh no no your lover don't need you anymore

I THANK MY LUCKY STARS
(Wayne P.Walker)
« © '65 Cedarwood Publishing, BMI / Songs Of PolyGram, BMI »
I thank my lucky stars for every day I spent with you
I thank my lucky stars because I found a girl so true
Many times I've seen of the girls I might have had
Watched them while they fall in love and watched it turn out bad
So when I count my blessings honey youre my number one
And when I count my heartaches thanks to you they're number none
So if I see I'm little bit too much in love that's true
I thank my lucky stars because I found a girl like you
(I thank my lucky stars for every day I spent with you
I thank my lucky stars because I found a girl so true)
Many times I've seen...
