This Old Guitar
John Denver
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
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
Most of all to sing my songs for youI love to sing my songs for you
Yes, I do, you know
I love to sing my songs for you

I can actually sing this tune with the words....nothing like a little John Denver to make ya feel good.
Probably my favorite John Denver song. Love the story he tells on the live album about when he and his guitar cowrote this song after they were reunited. My next favorite is "Boy from the Country."
