mac leaphart - ballad of bob yamaha or a simple plea in c major lyrics

[verse 1]
i come from j+pan, but i don’t speak j+panese
made me way to the states back in the 70s
first fella had me got bored pretty fast
he sold me quick for some cash and a case of beer
next fella had me, all he played was bob seger
when i say that’s all he played, i ain’t kidding either
mostly he just played one song
sometimes he played it all night long if he really hit the booze
working on those night moves, man

[chorus]
wеll i’m just an old guitar
n0body’s ever played too good
just lеan me up against the wall
learn a few chords and that’s all
yeah, and i don’t get my strings changed
as often as i should
’cause i’m just an old guitar
n0body’s ever played too good

[verse 2]
well then i’ve seen a few other owners
and a whole lot of my case
some chick picked me up during that lilith fair craze
i guess it was just a phase
she shoved me under a bed
i met her little sister when taylor swift come along
she wanted to write her own songs
sounded kind of like taylor swift songs?
man, they were a lot worse though
there’s my buddy
he’s a harmonica
he’s never been played worth a sh+t either
[harmonica solo]

[verse 3]
well, i know i ain’t top of the line
d+28, j+45
but just one time, i’d like to wind up in some capable hands
and i ain’t talking tony rice or doc watson
but the toughest thing i’ve ever got is neil young
needle and the damage done
i wouldn’t go so far as to say that song’s easy
but it ain’t all that hard

[chorus]
well i’m just an old guitar
n0body’s ever played too good
just lean me up against the wall
learn a few chords and that’s all
yeah, and i don’t get my strings changed
as often as i should
’cause i’m just an old guitar
n0body’s ever played too good

[outro]
i’m just an old guitar
n0body’s ever played too good
