He was sellin' an old guitar and I bought it I saw her smilin' picture in his wallet He said I call her baby but her Christian name is, Charlotte. She spends her days downtown hooked up to some machine They say time can heal, but time can't heal everything The lords gonna take her home real soon flyin' on, angels wings I'm gonna cry right now and that's okay We're all gonna die, someday You won't remember a single word I'm tryin' to say It's all a grand delusion when you think you're in control She's all I got left, I'm sellin' everything I own There's no good in a goodbye, it's the beginning of the end I left some songs in this guitar Sing Em' Good My Friend Ah Yeah This old guitar case has been a million miles Been a fools disciple, missed dance recitals, and the birth of every child Honestly, honesty never goes out of style Sing the pain my friend So the world see's her as just desperate, gray, and old All I see is my true love, my heart, my life, my soul At least for one more night I got a beautiful wrinkled hand to hold Sing the truth my friend. I'm gonna cry right now and that's okay We're all gonna die, someday You won't remember a single word I'm tryin' to say It's all a grand delusion when you think you're in control She's all I got left, I'm sellin' everything I own There's no good in a goodbye, it's the beginning of the end I left some songs in this guitar Sing Em' Good My Friend I'm gonna sing the pain away I'm gonna sing the truth, and then I'm gonna sing em' good, for my old friend Well I cried when I got in my truck, so I put on my shades Looked up at the crimson sky, as the sun began to fade And for the first time, in a long time, I swear I think I prayed I'm gonna sing the pain away I'm gonna sing the truth, and then I'm gonna sing em' good, for my old friend Yeah my old friend.
