Lyrics:

Recorded by Hank Williams, Sr.

Written by Jean Branch and Eddie Hill



Someday you'll [F] call my name and I won't [Bb] answer

Someday you'll [F] reach for me I won't be [C7] there

For you've grown [F] tired of all the love I [Bb] gave you

But some-[F] day you'll [C7] wish that I still [F] care.



[C7] All these years how I've [F] loved you

Still I [G] know I claim you for my [C7] own

Someday you'll [F] call my name and I won't [Bb] answer

For some-[F] day you'll [C7] find yourself a-[F] lone.



When you hair has turned from Gold to Silver

And your eyes are dimmed by passing years

You'll remember darling what I told you

There'll be no one then to dry your tears.



There'll come a time in your life dear

When you'll need someone who will care

Someday you'll call my name and I won't answer

For someday you'll find that I'm not there.
