D-DU-UDU
 I got  my first guitar when I  turned 13
 Daddy said here  ya go son, now you  can play like me
 I got  that honkytonk fever deep down  in my bones
From  that old maple guitar and a good  country song
 I remember the dry heat and the Mojave sand
 Just me and that guitar and some old marine friends
 And about the only thing that got us through 29 Palms
 Was an old maple guitar and some good country songs
 Lord that old  maple guitar gots wood grains  of gold
 And that good  country music just pours  from your soul
 And it'll echo  in the air way till god  calls us home
 With an old  maple guitar and a good  country song
 "Take it up boys" Change key to E
 I was stranded  in Birmingham and down  on my luck
 Cause my wife  took my money and then a bank  took my truck
 Oh but theres two  things I still have that they better  leave alone
 Thats that old maple guitar and these good country songs
 Lord that old  maple guitar gots wood  grains of gold
 And that good  country music it just pours  out from the soul
 And it'll echo  in the air way till god  calls me home
 With an old  maple guitar and a good  country song
 And a good ole Hank Williams country song
