John Hogan - My Guitar chords
Start Jamming...
Mark, what's that you're playing there?
I'm trying to play my guitar.
[A] Oh yeah?
Well you try it with me.
Okay.
Oh, you know what?
[G] We'll have a go together, [E] Tom.
Right?
[A] Ah, that's it.
[B] [F#m] [B]
At seventeen I started
[E] in that factory.
In the [F#] middle and the wire
[E]
falls for [B] me.
But the days, weeks, months and years
[E] passed so [B] slowly then.
For though I was a boy
I [F#] was working like [B] a man.
[F#] And I'd take my guitar and [B] I'd play.
[F#] I'd take my guitar and [E] I'd [B]
play.
[A] Good lady, old [E] lady me.
[B]
I'd take [A] my guitar and [B] I'd play.
In the heat and the dust
[E] long hours [B] were a grind.
[F#] And on those long [E] shifts
I would [B] always find
that songs and country music
[E] kept ringing in [B] my mind.
And I'd hope and I'd pray
[F#] that's what I [B] would find.
[F#] And I'd take my guitar and [B] I'd play.
[F#]
I'd take my guitar and [E] I'd [B] play.
[A] Good lady, old [E] lady me.
[B] I'd [A] take my guitar [B] and I'd play.
[G]
[C] Then came that faithful day
[F] when I could take no [C] more.
[G] For this love of country music
[F] was growing [C] more and more.
Blinded by my vision
[F] I left that faithful [C] board.
I took my old guitar
[G] and I headed [C] for the road.
[G] And I'd take my guitar [C] and I'd play.
[G] I'd take my guitar [F] and I'd [C]
play.
[A#] Good lady, old [F] lady me.
[C]
I'd take [A#] my guitar and [C] I'd play.
I'd take [A#] my guitar and [C] I'd play.
