Lyrics

[00:02.27] .
[00:02.77] .
[00:03.33] .
[00:03.80]
[00:13.80] He was selling an old guitar and I bought it
[00:19.36] I saw her smiling picture in his wallet
[00:24.74] He said "I call her 'baby' but her Christian name is Charlotte"
[00:29.55] .
[00:30.05]
[00:35.50] She spends her days downtown hooked up to some machine
[00:41.07] They say time can heal but time can't heal everything
[00:46.88] The Lord's gonna take her home real soon flying on angel's wings
[00:52.26] .
[00:57.76] I'm gonna cry right now and that's OK
[01:03.40] We're all gonna die someday
[01:08.96] You won't remember a single word I'm tryin' to say
[01:13.65] .
[01:14.58]
[01:20.05] It's all a grand illusion when you think you're in control
[01:25.55] She's all I got left, I'm sellin' everything I own
[01:30.61] There's no good in a goodbye, it's the beginning of the end
[01:36.11] I left some songs in this guitar
[01:41.99] Sing 'em good my friend
[01:44.36] .
[01:55.05] This old guitar and case has been in a million bars
[01:59.86] Been a fool's disciple, missed her dance recitals
[02:02.49] And the birth of every child
[02:05.43] Honestly honesty never goes out of style
[02:09.81] So sing the pain my friend
[02:11.93] .
[02:17.50] So the world sees her as just desperate grey and old
[02:22.56] And all I see is my true love, my heart, my life, my soul
[02:27.86] At least for one more night,
[02:29.87] I got a beautiful wrinkled hand to hold
[02:32.37] So sing the truth my friend
[02:34.74] .
[02:39.49] I'm gonna cry right now and that's OK
[02:45.30] We're all gonna die someday
[02:50.81] You won't remember a single word I'm tryin' to say
[02:55.99] .
[02:56.31]
[02:59.15] It's all a grand illusion when you think you're in control
[03:07.41] She's all I got left, I'm sellin' everything I own
[03:12.35] There's no good in a goodbye, it's the beginning of the end
[03:18.10] I left some songs in this guitar
[03:23.73] Sing 'em good my friend
[03:26.91] I'm gonna sing the pain for me
[03:32.16] I'm gonna sing the truth for me
[03:37.35] I'm gonna sing em good for my friend
[03:42.77] .
[03:47.33] Well I cried when I got in my truck so I put on my shades
[03:53.02] Looked up at the crimson sky as the sun began to fade
[03:58.59] And for the first time in a long time I swear
[04:02.77] I think I prayed
[04:05.02] .
[04:05.71] I'm gonna sing the pain for me
[04:10.96] I'm gonna sing the truth for me
[04:16.46] I'm gonna sing em good for my old friend
[04:24.33] Yeah my old friend
[04:27.96] .
