Phil Celia - Out Of Tune Guitar songtekst
Je score:
Well I bought myself an out of tune guitar In forty years I've never learned to tune it And I hoped that it would take me very far And so I play the best that I can do it And I never gave up trying and I never lost my faith If I didn't make it through I would wait the wait And I just kept right on playing until my fingers swelled Some said they loved me some could go to hell 'Cause I bought myself and an out of tune guitar and learned to play it well Well I hit the road when I was just 19 Heading west where I could show some promise But you know the grass is always green And pretty soon I had to fill my wallet And I met a real fine lady and I took her for my bride And way up in the canyon we found a place to hide And I'd learn my favorite love songs sing them just for her Went and had some babies, tried to get things stirred 'Cause I bought myself an out of tune guitar, I wanted to be heard And I never gave up playing had my hands tied to my waist I never was for sitting down or falling on my face I just kept keeping at it it was all that I could do One thing is for certain once I quit, I am through Sometimes I see friends that used to play But they've gone and put it in the closet They sit around and talk about the day And how they could have been someone but dropped it Well I don't pay attention I don't have the time I'm just hanging in there trying for that dime Or maybe a few million well today you need a few To start an institution to start something new 'Cause I bought myself an out of tune guitar and tuned it just for you, just for you Well I bought myself an out of tune guitar, tuned it just for you
