This Old Guitar(Chords)

	        This Old Guitar:   Neil Young 
D 
This old guitar ain't mine to keep, 
                                  G 
Just taking care of it now 
D 
It's been around for years and years, 
                                   G 
Just waiting in its old case 
D 
It's been up and down the country roads, 
                                        G 
It's brought a tear and a smile 
D 
It's seen its share of dreams and hopes, 
                                     G 
And never went out of style 
D 
The more I play it, the better it sounds, 
                                    G 
It cries when I leave it alone 
D 
Silently it waits for me, 
                               G 
Or someone else I suppose 
 
D 
This old guitar 
              G 
This old guitar 
D                        G     D 
This old guitar 
 
D 
This old guitar has caught some breaks, 
                                         G 
But it never searched for gold 
D 
It can't be blamed for my mistakes, 
                                  G 
It only does what it's told 
D 
It's been a messenger in times of trouble, 
                                  G 
In times of hope and fear 
D 
When I get drunk and seeing double, 
                                                  G 
It jumps behind the wheel and steers 
 
D 
This old guitar ain't mine to keep, 
                                  G 
It's mine to play for a while 
D 
This old guitar ain't mine to keep, 
                               G 
It's only mine for a while 
D 
This old guitar,    X 7      D    G   BACK & FORTH
