This is a blues song designed for some traditional acoustic blues guitar with this old guitar in my hands n no light in my heart I been singin the blues since we've been apart You cut me deep n I feel like a fool now I got a fever left over from you. I put my trust in your promises like you knew I would do you kept me believin in me and you then along came old Santa sweet daddy claus he gave you everything a woman could want Chorus: baby playin this guitar don't settle no scores but someday woman I'll see you outside his door you'll be cryin girl cause he found someone new then you'll know the words to this song about you with this old guitar in my hands I'm gonna sing right through the pain right through the darkness, right through the rain til I can face the days with my heart healed n learn to deal with the way I feel chorus: baby this old guitar don't settle no scores but someday woman I'll see you outside his door you'll be cryin girl cause he found someone new then you'll know the words to this song about you Bridge: so when you see me baby don't ask me how I've been cause you know I been alone while you been with him girl don't say someday maybe we'll talk cause you ain't no friend... the only friend I got is this old guitar to help me sing out the hurt til I get over you for better or worse Rep Chorus: baby playin this guitar don't settle no scores but someday woman I'll see you outside his door you'll be cryin girl cause he found someone new then you'll know the words to this song about you Ain't doin nothin at all Just answerin the call Kinda driftin away from it all~~~~~ |

ethome, Grab your guitar, sit at a piano and put some music with this baby. I sung this one and I will sing with you as soon as you have finished the melody. Simply awesome. Garfield |

How did I miss this? Now not only are the words incredibly good, and "country" but I happen to really like the song, it has real heart. Let me know when this one is out and I would sure buy it! Great job Eric. |

You were welcome then, and even more welcome now, as I take a moment to read it over, again... Just sorry I didn't respond the first time! I need to start sending your lyrics to my brother, who is also a musician...I think he'd enjoy looking them over! |

Eric, another good blues tune. But one comment about word order, I would reverse the position of 'pain' and 'rain' maybe (sing out in the rain)...just the way my heart and ears hear it. |
