CFC
Tonight I hold the one I love far from the one at home
CG
I picked her up some time ago and I never feel alone
FCF
I held on tight too many years to ever set her free
CFCGC
And though she's not a lady she still means the world to me
Chorus:
FC
She's no lady but I love her, she's been known to be untrue
GC
She's been knocked around and picked on, even dropped a time or two
FCC/BAm
She's been passed around at parties, sat on everybody's knees
CFCGF
This old guitar's changed hands a time or two but it still belongs to me
C
It still belongs to me
Instrumental
She's the one who keeps me from my wife and family half the time
She haunts me and she drives me to these honky tonk dives
I pick her up each evening as the neon starts to glow
And hold her closer to my heart than any lady's ever known
