Intro:   GM7   CM7   GM7    CM7
       GM7                    CM7
On the top of my desk mid the clutter and dust
        GM7               CM7
sits an old 5x8 black and white
     GM7                CM7
It's one of my favorite pictures of us
     C                    D
I'll carry with me all my life
Am7                D            G
I must have been a-bout five or six
      Am                       C               G
Mom's hair was still brown and Dad's was still thick
       C          Em       C           G
But to look at it now some-times I get scared
   C               Em       C            D
To think that some-day they might not be there

       C           D        G
'Cause who's gonna know but me
       C         D          G           C
Who'll help me recall those small mem-o-ries
Am             D            G         C
I'm all that's left of this family of three
Am          D        GM7      CM7
Who's gonna know but me?

GM7                CM7
Down in the cellar under the steps
        GM7                       CM7
Sits an old box of junk that I've saved
GM7                  CM7
Newspaper clippings, letters and cards
C                      D
Even some code-a-phone tapes
Am7                  D          G
Slices of life I can hold in my hand
    Am                      C           G
And show to my kids so they might under-stand
    C             Em             C           G
In those years to come when they ask me some night
     C           Em      C          D
What Grandma and Grandpa used to be like

       C           D        G
'Cause who's gonna know but me
       C         D          G           C
Who'll help me recall those small mem-o-ries
Am             D            G         C
I'm all that's left of this family of three
Am          D        G
Who's gonna know but me?

   Bm                CM7
If life were a video I could rewind
    Bm                         CM7
I'd go back and slow down each moment in time
     Bm                  C            G
Then I'd disconnect the fast forward button
   C            G       C          D
So I'd have for-ever to tell 'em I love 'em
    C       G            C          D
The older I get, I can't get enough of 'em

       C           D        G
'Cause who's gonna know but me
       C         D        G           C
Who'll help me recall all those mem-o-ries
Am             D            G         C
I'm all that's left of this family of three
Am          D        G
Who's gonna know but me?
C           D        G
Who's gonna know but me?
