[Verse]
 
     D                        C  G
I’ve held this guitar now for 40 years
D    C    G       D
  A gift from my father
     D                          C                G
It’s seen some good times, some hard times, some tears
D       C        G       D
Burning fire and cooling water
 
 
[Chorus]
 
   A                  C             G
It knows my story, it knows all my songs, 
   A                                         C                    G     
It knows when things are going right, and it knows how things can go so 
 D     C   G   D  -  C  G  D

[Verse]
 
  D                                  C       G
I learned on these 6 strings, how to talk to you
D         C          G        D
  When my lines just wouldn’t do
  D                                 C              G
I learned on this old friend to let go and let the Lord
D            C       G        D
   Write the words, find the chords
 
 
[Chorus 2]
 
       A                   C       G
In and out of tune, in and out of time
   A                              C             G      D      C   G   D  -  C  G 
It knows my broken reasons and it knows all my slanted rhymes
 D
 
 
[Instrumental]
 
D  C  G  D - C  G  D
 
 
[Verse]
 
D                                             C         G
I was trying to write a song and nothing was coming out right
D       C       G    D
Took it out on this guitar
D                                   C               G
Then I held it in my arms, tried to play it back to life
     D               C      G           D
I’m forgiven, but it still carries the scars
 
 
[Chorus 3]
 
 A                           C       G
Got this machine when I was 15 years old
   A                  C        G
It knows every secret I never told
   A                  C            G
It knows my heart, it gave me some soul
   A                                      C      G             D      C   G
It knows ‘bout all the times I played the rock n roll, on this guitar.......
             D   C   G
…on this guitar
             D   C   G
…on this guitar
 
                                   D  C  G
MOVES INTO ROCK 'N ROLL BEAT ON -  ........  TO FADE
