[C#m] [F#]
[C#] This old guitar [G#] taught me to [A#m] sing [Fm] a love song, [F#] showed me [G#] how to laugh, how to [C#] cry.
[G#] [C#m]
It [F#] introduced me to [G#m] some friends of mine, [C#] brightened [G#] up some [C#]
days.
[F#] It helped me [G#] make it through some lonely nights.
Oh, [F#] what a friend to have on [G#] a cold and lonely night.

[F#] [G#]
[C#] This old [G#] guitar gave me my [A#m] lovely [Fm] lady.
[F#] It [B] opened up her [G#] eyes and ears [C#] to me.
[F] [C#]
It [B] brought us close together, [D#] and I guess it broke her [C#m] heart when it [B] opened [G#] up the space for us to be.
[C#m]
What [F#] a lovely place and a lovely space to [C#] be.
[G#] [C#m] [F#]
[G#m] [G#] [C#]
This old [G#] guitar gave me [A#m] my life, [Fm] my living.
[F#]
All the [G#] things you know I [C#] love to [G#] do.
[C#] [B] To serenade [G#m] the stars that shine from a sunny [C#m] mountainside.
[F#]
Most of [G#] all, to sing my songs [C#] for [G#] you.
[C#m] [F#]
I love [G#] to sing my songs [C#] for you.
[G#] Yes, [C#m] I do, you know.
