Bury Me With My Guitar

Tag on the string said 700 bucks
Pawn shop there at the edge of town
I was 13 first time I picked it up
Most days I still can't put it down

It's in pretty good shape for a '68
Worth it's wait in country gold
And I know I can't take it with me when I go

So one day when they lay me down
Put me in my hometown ground
With my first love still in my arms
Bury me with my guitar

It's been a part of every song I ever wrote
Hit every stage from here to Omaha
It's seen money, friends, and women come and go
And it's a damn good thing that it can't talk

And I lost it once in Austin
Thought I'd never get it back
Hell, I can't be without it after that

So one day when they lay me down
Put me in my hometown ground
With my first love still in my arms
Bury me with my guitar

Put some new strings on it and make sure it's in tune
In case guitars go to heaven and good ole boys do, too

One day when they lay me down
Put me in my hometown ground
With my first love still in my arms
Bury me with my guitar

My guitar
