of it now��
D D
This old guitar ain't mine to keep
Cadd9 G6
Just taking care of it now
D D
It's been around for years and years
Cadd9 G6
Just waiting in its old case
D D
It's been up and down the country roads
Cadd9 G6
It's brought a tear and a smile
D D
It's seen its share of dreams and hopes
Cadd9 G6
And never went out of style
D D
The more I play it, the better it sounds
Cadd9 G6
It cries when I leave it alone
D D
Silently it waits for me
Cadd9 G6
Or someone else I suppose
D D
This old guitar
Cadd9 G6
This old guitar
D G6
This old guitar
Cadd9 G6

D D
This old guitar has caught some breaks
Cadd9 G6
But it never searched for gold
D D
It can't be blamed for my mistakes
Cadd9
It only does what it's told
D D
It's been a messenger in times of trouble
Cadd9 D
In times of hope and fear
D D
When I get drunk and seeing double
Cadd9
It jumps behind the wheel and steers
D D
This old guitar ain't mine to keep
Cadd9 G6
It's mine to play for a while
D D
This old guitar ain't mine to keep
Cadd9 G6
It's only mine for a while
(and so on�)
This old guitar
This old guitar
This old guitar
This old guitar
This old guitar
This old guitar
This old guitar
