THIS OLD GUITAR
This old guitar taught me to sing a love song
It showed me how to laugh and how to cry
It introduced me to some friends of mine
and brightened up some days
And it helped me make it through some lonely nights
What a friend to have on a cold and lonely night.
This old guitar gave me my lovely lady
It opened up her eyes and ears to me
It brought us close together and I guess it broke her heart
It opened up the space for us to be
What a lovely place and a lovely space to be.
This old guitar gave me my life my living
All the things you know I love to do
To serenade the stars that shine form a sunny mountainside
And most of all to sing my songs for you
I love to sing my songs for you.
