D
Met her in a pawn shop
Em
Took her down to the local bar
A
Held her close to me, anyone could see
G           A            D
All I am is me and my guitar

D
People came to listen
Em
Some traveled from afar
A
They stood in line, as if to find
G                 D
Salvation in that bar

D
I told myself - there are just two things
Em
That got you where you are
G           A            D
All I am is me and my guitar

G
We traveled around this country
D
Though she never had a name
Em
Sometimes she was music
A
Sometimes she was fame

       D
Ah but nothin” lasts forever
Em
Like a steel string played too hard
A
And when it breaks it sometimes takes
G                      D
Your suitcase and your stars


D
So I headed back down to the pawn shop
Em
But I never got that far
A
I held her close to me, anyone could see
G           A            D
All I am is me and my guitar

G
We traveled around this country
D
Though she never had a name
Em
Sometimes she was music
A
Sometimes she was fame

D
Now I play for all the people
Em
Droppin’ dollars in my jar, and
G           A            D
All I am is me and my guitar
G           A            D
All I am is me and my guitar
