CAPO #1
D
I'm just a guitar, in the pawn shop on the corner,
G D
And I'm waiting for someone to play me now and then.
A
My strings are kinda rusty, and I'm just a little dusty,
D
Oh, but you'd be too, if you've been where I've been.
D
I did some shows with Haggard, back in 1967,
G E
Now I'm dying for someone to play me back home.
*Chorus*
G A D G
I'm just a guitar in the pawn shop on the corner,
D A D
Hey, come on by and listen to my song.
*break*

D
I've seen at least a million of those tiny, smokey bar rooms,
G A D
And I've helped to heal some heartaches, and I've helped to sell some beer.
A
And the last one that held me, just couldn't wait to sell me.
D
For 20 dollars, he left me hanging here.
D
But I dream about the spotlight, and the roaring of the people,
G E
And I wonder if I'm ever gonna hear 'em sing along.
*Chorus*
G A D G
I'm just a guitar in the pawn shop on the corner,
D A D
Hey, come on by and listen to my song.
*break*
D,D,G,A,D,D,D,D
D
I've got a lot of memories and a song or two left in me,
G E
And some day someone will pick me and play me back home.
*Chorus*
G A D G
I'm just a guitar in the pawn shop on the corner,
D A D
Hey, come on by and listen to my song.
D A D
Won't ya come on by and listen to my song.
D,A,D
