This Old Guitar Lyrics - Denver John

This old guitar taught me to sing a love song 

It showed me how to laugh and how to cry 

It introduced me to some friends of mine 

And brightened up some days 

It helped me make it through some lonely nights 

Oh, what a friend to have on a cold and lonely night 

This old guitar gave me my lovely lady 

It opened up her eyes and ears to me 

It brought us close together 

And I guess it broke her heart 

It opened up the space for us to be 

What a lovely place and a lovely space to be 

This old guitar gave me my life, my living 

All the things you know I love to do 

To serenade the stars that shine 

From a sunny mountainside 

And most of all to sing my songs for you 

I love to sing my songs for you 

Yes, I do, you know 

I love to sing my songs for you
