I still remember how it sounded
The first time that I found it
Down them stairs in that dark basement room
I can still hear him sayin'
"Boy, if you wanna learn to play it
Start right here with an old country tune"
Grandpa's guitar
Grandpa's guitar
Ain't we come so far
Me and, me and his old guitar
On that fall day he died
They all stood in the kitchen and cried
I wandered down the stairs to get away
When I opened up that case
Like rain, tears fell down my face
And I had to pick it up and play
Grandpa's guitar
Grandpa's guitar
Ain't we come so far
Me and that old guitar
Me and that old guitar
