^DThis old guitar ain't mine to keep ^DJust taking care of it now^G ^A ^DIt's been around for years and years ^DJust waiting in its old case^G ^A ^DIt's been up and down the country roads ^DIt's brought a tear and a smile ^G ^A ^DIt's seen its share of dreams and hopes ^DAnd never went out of style ^G ^A ^DThe more I play it, the better it sounds ^DIt cries when I leave it alone^G ^A ^DSilently it waits for me ^DOr someone else I suppose ^G ^A
