Intro: D5  D5  B5  B5  G5  A5 D5  

          A5                B5    F#5
This old guitar taught me to sing a love song
G5                    A5             D5 D5 B5 B5
 It showed me how to laugh and how to cry
         G5                 A5
It introduced me to some friends of mine
      D5       D5      B5 B5
and brightened up some days
        G5                 A5               D5   D5 B5
and it helped me make it through some lonely nights 
   B5

         G5                  A5             D5   D5 B5 B5
What a friend to have on a cold an lonely night 
 G5 A5 A5

D5             A5             B5     F#5
 This old guitar gave me my lovely lady
G5                A5             D5  D5 B5 B5
 It opened up her eyes and ears to me
     G5                 A5
It brought us close together
       D5       D5        B5 B5
and I guess it broke her heart
   G5              A5              D5  D5  B5 B5
It opened up the space for us to be
        G5                 A5  A5     D5 D5  B5 B5
What a lovely place and a lovely way to be 
    G5  A5 A5

D5             A5             B5       F#5
 This old guitar gave me my life, my living --
G5                   A5          D5  D5 B5 B5
 all the things you know I love to do
    G5             A5
To serenade the stars that shine
        D5    D5     B5  B5
from a sunny mountain side
     G5              A5                D5  D5  B5  B5
and most of all to sing my songs for you
G5           A5                 D5  D5  B5 B5
 I love to sing my songs for you, yes I do
G5               A5                 D5  D5  B5 B5
 and I love to sing my songs for you
G5  A5 A5   D5  D5  B5 B5  G5  A5  D5
