A song I wrote in 1999 in my angsty late teens. For voice & guitar in a minor key.
Guitar
Look at me, playing my life away
On a broken guitar, no-one else will play
They don't see the beauty in you
Nobody seems to care
What happened to the guitar
Everyone used to listen to
Everyone wanted to play you
Ah guitar
Look at me, fallen for a guitar
Fallen like a falling star
Your sounds are still so clear to me
Nobody seems to care
What happened to the guitar
Everyone used to listen to
Everyone wanted to play you
Ah guitar
Look at me, still playing here
Playing smiles, playing a single tear
Nobody hears how you express
Nobody seems to care
What happened to the guitar
Everyone used to listen to
Everyone wanted to play you
Ah guitar
