   This old guitar taught me to sing a love song, 


   F                  G                 C        C/G        Am       Am7/G

   it showed me how to laugh and how to cry.

   F                  G                 C        C/G        Am       Am7/G

   It introduced me to some friends of mine and brightened up my days.

   F                  G                 C        C/G        Am       Am7/G

  It helped me make it through some lonely nights.

   F                  G                 C        C/G        Am       Am7/G

   This old guitar gave me my lovely lady,

   F                  G                 C        C/G        Am       Am7/G

   it opened up her eyes and ears to me.

   it opened up the space for us to be,

   F                  G                 C        C/G        Am       Am7/G
