Song Description

Music has really gotten me down sometimes and really hasn't gotten me far, but I just can't seem to get enough.

Lyrics

Whats the use in tryin you ain't givin nothin back
just some sad and lonely songs, well wheres the fun in that
for years we hit the road thinkin I could be a star
played alot of honky tonks but never made it far
I never got the ladies and all the one night stands
never even made a dime just gave it to the band
and I spent alot of money and I don't have much to show
just this beat up old guitar momma got me long ago

(CHORUS)
Damn this old guitar/ throw it in a fire/burn it into ashes/ cause I've lost my desire
If I did it all again/I'd do it just the same/ I'd play that guitar till I die and take it to my grave

You'd wake me up at midnight when I was dead asleep
with some crazy great idea that I would never keep
I shared all my secrets and deepest thoughts with you
chasin around this crazy dream that never would come true

I traveled many miles so I could go and play
then I'd have to get half drunk to get you on the stage
One song on the radio sure would have been nice
free beer and chicken wings would have suited me just fine

Chorus
