This Ole Guitar

They said this ole guitar wouldn’t take me places

But this ole guitar’s been all over west TX

It’s been in bars, it’s been in cars, broke some

hearts and healed some scars this ole guitar

They said those ole guitar wouldn’t make me famous

But this ole guitar’s been on a lot of stages

It’s seen me shine through the dark, soaked up

sweat as I worked hard

This ole guitar

There’s a treasure in this box I hold

Memories and stories still untold

It’s just wood and strings

But it’s seen some things

This ole guitar

It’s seen the inside of the bedroom when I’m crying

And it tells me so when it knows that I’m lying

It keeps my secrets every time

Then turns around and makes them rhyme

This ole guitar

There’s a treasure in this box I hold

Memories and stories still untold

It’s just wood and strings

But it’s seen some things

This ole guitar

And I know I meet seem lonely, but I’m not

I’m just holding on to everything I’ve got

I’m spending time with my confidant

There’s a treasure in this box I hold

Memories and stories still untold

It’s just wood and strings

But it’s seen some things

This ole guitar

They said this ole guitar wouldn’t take me

places
