my tears fall

life has a funny way

of keeping me on my toes

oh how my shoulders ache

under the weight of my woes

my tears fall

on my old guitar

and i just wail and weep

over softly bending strings

lovers and friends the same

everyone's fair game

everyone can hurt your heart

when it all falls apart

my tears fall

on my old guitar

and i just wail and weep

over softly bending strings

no matter where i go

the music guides my soul

through all the ups and downs

it can help turn me around

my tears fall

on my old guitar

and i just wail and weep

over softly bending strings
