Play guitar play (video) (intro)

D

1. Play, guitar, play, take me back to yesterday,

A - A7

let me see cotton growing in the fields.

D

Let me hear my momma calling, look a yonder y'all who's coming,

   A     - G                      D

down the road he's coming home, but they know I never will.

A                            G             D

I left them living with that awful thing I’d done

A                        G                A    - A7

I didn't tell them, I just packed my clothes and run.

D

2. Play, guitar, play, help me through another day,

A   - A7

help me make another dollar before I go.

D

We got time for one more song then we'll have to move along,

A7     - G                     D

another town, another crowd, Lord, I wonder if they know.

A                        G           D

Can they read between the lines in my songs,

A                G                   A

as I sing about a good boy that went wrong ?

G                      D - G                          D

Guitar, we got years to kill, got to climb that distant hill.

G                         D

I wonder if they think of me ? (Guitar, play !)

(Conway Twitty)
