The Guitar

[Verse 1]
             Bm
Well, I was passing by a pawn shop
       G
In an older part of town
A
Somethin' caught my eye
      F#
And I stopped and turned around
  Bm
I stepped inside an' there I spied
       G
In the middle of it all
      A
Was a beat up old guitar
F#
Hangin' on the wall.
Bm
"What do you want for that piece of 
junk?"
   G
I asked the old man
        A
He just smiled and took it down
       F#
And he put it in my hand
         Bm
He said, "You tell me what it's 
worth
G
You're the one who wants it
A
Turn it up, play a song
     F#
And let's just see what haunts it."

[Verse 2]
     Bm
So I hit a couple of cords

           G
In my old country way of strumming
     A
And then my fingers turned to 
lightnin'
         F#
Man, I never heard it comin'

[Chorus]
       Bm
It was like I always knew it
   G
I just don't know where I learned it
   A
It wadn't nothin' but the truth
           F#
So I just reared back and burned it

[Verse 3]
        Bm
Well, I lost all track of time
       G
There was nothing I couldn't pick
A
Up and down the neck
           F#
Man.. I never missed a lick

[Verse 4]
    Bm
The guitar almost played itself
 A           G
There was nothing I could do
A
It was getting hard to tell
     F#
Just who was playing who

[Verse 5]
       Bm
When I finally put it down
  G
I couldn't catch my breath
   A
My hands were shakin'
          F#
And I was scared to death
    Bm
The old man finally got up
      G
Said, "where in the Hell you been?
A
I've been waiting all these years
    F#
For you to stumble in"
        Bm
Then he took down an old dusty case
      G
Said, "go on and pack it up,
A
You don't owe me nothing"
    F#
And then he said, "good luck"
     Bm
There was somethin' spooky in his 
voice
      G
And somethin' strange on his face
         A
When he shut the lid
          F#
I saw my name was on the case
