lyrics

Wish You Were My Guitar

If only I could pick you up and hold you tight
Keep you close and play all night
And when I needed you I’d know exactly where you are
I wish you were my guitar

Wish I could hold you in my hands
And we could go join a fine string band
Or we could ride together in an old boxcar
I wish you were my guitar

Cos I don’t have no-one here who wants me
And I don’t have someone to love me
So when I’m all alone and lonely, playing the blues
Then I wish my guitar was you

I got dreams to be a country star
Be the King of Nashville me and my guitar
But I need love and this old box just ain’t no substitute
Then I wish my guitar was you

All I have are three chords and the truth
And the simple truth is I don’t have you

You’re the sweetest thing I have ever seen by far
I wish you were my guitar
