Verse

C There's a guitar here in the window Dm7 F I'd like to play before it's sold. F G It's such a classic, mint condition, C F C Great shape for one this old. C Now all these axes have their stories, Dm7 G Of the gigs that they have seen G G7 But when this one sold the first time C F C I was seventeen.

Bridge

F 'Course back then I didn't want it Fm It was way too new for me. G G7 I needed something old and righteous C F C With its own authority. F So the first guitar I ever bought Fm Was twice as old as me G 'Cause its life was full of music, G7 F C As I dreamed that mine might be.

Verse

F And I played that thing a thousand nights Fm And traded it away G For something slightly newer F C That was easier to play. Dm7 But now lately I buy new guitars Fm They're shiny as a hearse. G I still like the look of road wear, C F C But the roles have been reversed.

Outro

F And now this thing is a classic Fm But I still don't need to buy. G Yeah, the old one's have their stories F G C But by now' So do I. (Play intro)
