1. 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,
-
it helped me make it thru some lonely nights. Oho.
- - - - -
What a friend to have on a cold and lonely night.
-
2. 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.
-
3. This old guitar gave me my life, my living,
- - -
and all the things you know I love to do.
To serenade the stars that shine
-
from a sunny mountain-side,
- - -
and most of all to sing my songs for you.
I love to sing my songs for you. Yes I do, you know
- - - -
and I love to sing my songs for you. M m.

M m m..............….hu hu you you you..…...wow wow
