You and My Guitar - John Williamson

作曲：John Williamson

This guitar only sings the way I play it

It's a part of me just like another arm

It started out as a little ukulele

When I was just a boy on the farm

My fingers were too lazy for piano

But I could hold a tune pretty good

And I couldn't sing a

Song with a trombone

So I taught myself to

Play this piece of wood

But I know you are stayin' beside me

True lovers

We both feel the pain

And I'd throw this old box on the fire

Before I'd ever lose you again

Well you never did like this old guitar

Did you darlin'

'Cause the guitar takes your

Man away from you

One day I'll write a song for you darlin'

That'll be the very best that I can do

Will it be a song about a wild wind

Will the thunder clap and flashes of blue

Or will it be a song about an angel

It'll never be as beautiful as you

But I know you are stayin' beside me

True lovers

We both feel the pain

And I'd throw this old box on the fire

Before I'd ever lose you again

This guitar only sings the way I play it

It's a part of me just like another arm

It started out as a little ukulele

When I was just a boy on the farm

But now I am a man with a woman

The words I want to sing

Won't come through

No matter where this

Guitar's gonna take us

It'll never be as beautiful as you
