This old guitar

       This old guitar taught me to sing the love song 
       Show me how to laugh and how to cry 
       Introduce me to some friends of mine, 
       Brighten up some day 
       Help me make it through some lonely night...oh! 
       What's a friend to have on a cold and lonely night 

       This old guitar gave me my lovely lady 
       Open up her eyes and ears to me 
       Brought us close together 
       And I guess it broke her heart 
       Open up this space for us to be 
       What's a lovely place, the lovely space to be 

       This old guitar gave me my life my living 
       All the things you know I love to do 
       To serenade the stars that shine 
       From a sunny mountain side 
       Most of all to sing my song to you 
       I love to sing my song to you, yes I do, you know, 
       I love to sing my song to you
