Strum
D-DU-UDU
Well he threw one down form the top of the stairs
beautiful women were staning everywhere
they all got wet when he smahed that thing
but off in the dark you could hear somebody sing
oh it breaks my heart to see those stars
smashing a perfectly good guitar
i don;t know who they think they are
smashing a perfectly good guitar
it started back in 1963
his momma wounlt buy him
that new red harmony
he settled fgor a sunburt with a crack
but he's still trying to break his momma's back.
Same Chords as intro.
he loved that guitar just like a girlfriend
but ever good thing comes to an end
now he just sits in his room all day
whistling every note he used to play
there out to be a law with no bail
smash a guitar and you go to jail
with no chance for early parole
you don;t get out till you get some soul
late at night the end of the road
he wished he still had the old guitar to hold
he'd rock it like a baby in his arms
never let it come ot any harm
