This old guitar Seen dusty roads and smoky bars Back seats of all my old cars City lights and southern stars
This old guitar It’s told the truth, it’s told some lies Sometimes it sings, sometimes it cries It’s who I am- it’s my disguise
This old guitar It’s just wood and strings and steel This old guitar Always knows just how I feel This old guitar It’s seen its share of broken hearts It’s got cracks and broken parts It’s a symphony of scars
This old guitar Hell, I have even gone and named it I have cursed and blessed and blamed it Still my fingers have not tamed it
This old guitar Guess you could say we show our ages From all the songs and whiskey rages Crazy stages, final pages
This old guitar It’s just wood and strings and steel This old guitar Always knows just how I feel This old guitar It’s seen its share of broken hearts It’s got cracks and broken parts It’s a symphony of scars
This old guitar Has played for kings and played for paupers It’s all the gold that’s in my coffers Still I can’t give it all it offers
This old guitar It’s just wood and strings and steel This old guitar Always knows just how I feel This old guitar It’s seen its share of broken hearts It’s got cracks and broken parts It’s a symphony of scars
