Guitar In The Corner

A
There's a guitar in the corner
     E7
That used to have a song

I would hold it while it played me
                 A
And I would sing along


It was a happy song about a girl
       A7              D
Loving me like I loved her
                          A
But the strings no longer ring
    E7                          A
And things are not the way they were

E7
Now when I need a song
             D
My mind goes back where I belong
         B7
When I'm not there and the future is not clear
                                         E7
And the past is just a smoke ring in the air

         A
And that guitar in the corner
     E7
Just waits there by the wall

Standing guard and thinking
                         A
A new song might come to call


And free us from this minor key
     A7                  D
That we both been living in
                                A
And we'll pick up where we left off
    E7              A
And play some songs again

A
There's a guitar in the corner
     E7
That used to have a song

I would hold it while it played me
                 A
And I would sing along
