Song for my guitar

It’s a song for my guitar

I play it when I’m lonely

Just a song for my guitar

And She knows I’ve been lonely, for a long time

It’s a song for my guitar

I play it and I feel it

Just a song for my guitar

I love it and I live it

And when the night is lonely

I can hear Her say

It’s a feeling

And it’s growing

But you have to get out

Show that you can make it

Or it will pass you by

So says my guitar

It’s a song for my guitar

It makes lonely a little easier

Just a song for my guitar

It helps me forget her and the love we had

It’s a song for my guitar

I play it and I feel it

Just a song for my guitar

I love it and I live it

And when the night is lonely

I can hear Her say

It’s a feeling

And it’s growing

But you have to get out

Show that you can make it

Or it will pass you by

So says my guitar

So says my guitar
