This Guitar Is For Sale

This is a rather basic version of the song, I figured it out myself after hearing the song. The original lyrics are a Shel Silverstein poem, and the song is from a tribute album that was made shortly following Shels death. *capo on second fret* C This guitar is for sale. F E/F F I'll let her go cheap, G Tho' she's pretty to look at, C She don't earn her keep. C She can roar like the west wind, C She can weep. F E/F F She can wail. G G7 But the tunes that she plays ain't sellin' today, C This guitar is for sale. F She's laid here beside me C On cold winter nights. G7 She's got me in trouble G7 She's won me some fights, N.C We both came out all right! C She knows every sad song F E/F F That Hank ever wrote. G Just touch her once gently, C And she'll take you on home. C She'll tell you sad stories F E/F F 'Bout junk yards and jails G And a fool with a song, G7 And a love that's gone wrong. C This guitar is for sale. F She's rode 'cross this country C On freight trains and trucks G7 Hung 'round pawn shop windows G7 When we've been down on our luck N.C And we've been down on our luck! C So please treat her kindly. F E/F F Keep her out of the rain. G It's funny you're askin'... C I never gave her a name. C If you think she looks weary, F E/F F You've been readin' our mail. G If you've got the dough, G7 Take her and go, C This guitar is for sale. F She's won me some ladies C With her sweet lovin' songs G7 And she stayed right here with me G7 When the ladies were gone. N.C And the ladies are gone! C But hard times and troubles F E/F F Been doggin' our tale. G If you've got the dough, G7 Buddy, take her and go, C This guitar is for sale.
