THE ONLY ONE THAT UNDERSTANDS ME IS MY GUITAR

THIS PIECE OF WOOD THAT I HOLD
I BOUGHT MANY YEARS AGO
TURNED MY FINGERTIPS RED RAW
WHEN I WAS LEARNING TO PLAY
DUE TO THE YEARS WE’VE SHARED
EACH OTHERS WAYS WE NOW KNOW
WE CAN ALWAYS FIND SOMETHING
TO LIFT THE MOOD OF OUR DAY

(CHORUS)

SOMETIMES IT FEELS THAT THE ONLY ONE
THAT UNDERSTANDS ME IS MY GUITAR
OH OH OH YEH
SOMETIMES IT FEELS THAT THE ONLY ONE
THAT UNDERSTANDS ME IS MY GUITAR

WON’T TREAT ME LIKE NO WOMAN
WITH THEIR HARD TO FIGURE MOODS
NOR LIKE THAT PUSHY BOSSMAN
TELLING ME TOO TOW THE LINE
UNLIKE THE TWO I’VE MENTIONED
I WON’T GET NO ATTITUDE
IF ONE DAY WE DON’T CONNECT
THAT WILL BE PERFECTLY FINE

(CHORUS)

TRIED TO LEARN ABOUT THE FEMALE KIND
THOUGH FOR MAN’S MIND THAT’S A PUSH TOO FAR
NOWADAYS DON’T DO THAT DAILY GRIND
I JUST PLAY THESE BLUES UNDER THE STARS
WHEN WE JOIN FORCES IT’S SO REFINED
SINCE WE’VE HONED OUR CRAFT IN MANY BARS

(SOLO)

(CHORUS X 2)                                                                                                            
                                                                                                                                        
OH OH OH YEH
THE ONLY ONE THAT UNDERSTANDS ME IS MY GUITAR
