Old Beat Up Guitar

D                     D7
Well I found her in a pawn shop
          G          D
Somewhere up in Ohio
                           Bm
Where I guess some rounder came up 
short
       E7                A
And he had to let her go
D              D7
Cost me ninety dollars
        G                  D
But its worth much more by far
                       Bm
Cause I've never had a better friend
          A                  D
Than that old beat up guitar

[Chorus]
G                    A
Didn't look like too much(Ab slide->
 A)
       D                  G
Just a Roy Smeck Stage De luxe
                     D
But a lady she never fared as well
    A                    D
Who travelled through so much

D                     D7
She travelled with me always
            G              D
Through the alleys and the bars
                 Bm
Songs I sang and friends I knew
     E7                  A
Were part of that guitar
Continúa después del anuncio
   D                 D7
At nights she was my pillow
        G              D
Restin' underneath the stars
                Bm
Day and night I stayed alive
          A                  D
With that old beat up guitar

[Repeat Chorus]
D                         D7
She picked up the name of Angel
      G               D
In an old New Orleans bar
                     Bm
Where a drunken poet drew one on
    E7          A
The top of that guitar
    D               D7
Ol' Babe Stovall he marked her

Example:  where you see a "G" below,
 change it to a "F" and so on...

              G                    
Scratched the songs right from his 
      D
heart
                     Bm
Seems everyone there used to scar
     A                  D
That old beat up guitar
Repeat Chorus
D                          D7
Well a ramblin' man he has trouble
        G                      D
Hangin' on to all that he owns
                   Bm
And in those years of travellin'
         E7              A
That gui tar fell by the road
    D                D7
The one night in New Mexico
  G                  D
I stumbled into this bar
                    Bm
The Angel lay there smilin'
        A                  D
On that old beat up guitar


[Chorus]Repeat Chorus][
D                   D7
I took her from the wall
       G                D
Ran my hands across the scars
                 Bm
Played again the old songs
          E7                  A
That were written on that gui tar
D                     D7
Friends I'd loved and lost
     G                    D
Many nights inside of the bar
                     Bm
Came back so clearly singin'
        A               D
On that old beat up gui tar
