D                                
This old guitar ain't mine to keep
D                         G  A 
Just taking care of it now
D 				   
It's been around for years and years
D                           G  A
Just waiting in its old case
D 				      
It's been up and down the country roads
D	            	        	       G  A	
It's brought a tear and a smile
D                                    
It's seen its share of dreams and hopes
D		                     	   G  A
And never went out of style
D                                      
The more I play it, the better it sounds
D                             G  A
It cries when I leave it alone
D                      
Silently it waits for me
D	                     		 G  A
Or someone else I suppose



D               G  A          
This old guitar
D               G  A
This old guitar
D               G  A
This old guitar

D				     
This old guitar has caught some breaks
D                             G  A
But it never searched for gold
D				         
It can't be blamed for my mistakes
D                          G  A
It only does what it's told
D					        
It's been a messenger in times of trouble
D		          	            G  A			
In times of hope and fear
D					 
When I get drunk and seeing double
D                                   G  A
It jumps behind the wheel and steers
D                                            
This old guitar ain't mine to keep
D                            G  A
It's mine to play for a while
D				       
This old guitar ain't mine to keep
D                          G  A
It's only mine for a while
