Old Guitar Blues

Got an old guitar, she's scratched and worn Strings all rusted, since the day I was born She's been my companion through the long, lonesome nights Singin' my sorrows under pale moonlight Oh, my old guitar, you know my pain Carried my heart through the wind and the rain With every chord, you tell my tale Old guitar, you never fail Her neck's all faded, got stories to tell Of smoky barrooms and a life livin' hell She cried for my losses, she sang for my wins Held me together when the world caved in Oh, my old guitar, you know my pain Carried my heart through the wind and the rain With every chord, you tell my tale Old guitar, you never fail Some folks got diamonds, some got gold But this old guitar's got my soul to hold She's cracked and battered, but she still sings true Ain't no one knows me like my six-string do One day I'll be gone, just dust in the ground But this old guitar's got my soul to hold She's cracked and battered, but she still sings true Ain't no one knows me like my six-string do One day I'll be gone, just dust in the ground But this old guitar, she'll still be around Some new hands'll play her, feel the weight of my blues She'll whisper my story in the notes they choose Oh, my old guitar, you know my pain Carried my heart through the wind and the rain With every chord, you tell my tale Old guitar, you never fail Yeah, my old guitar, you'll always be mine Singin' my blues till the end of time.
