Behind This Guitar - Mo Pitney
Well I love the crowds, love the town
Loves the way... my life's gone down..... the way it has....
I get to sing & chase my dreams
But like they say... with all good thing.... there's strings attached....
Don't get me wrong, my life's a song
You know me, ....I belong .......girl.... where you are
But from time to time, it feels like I'm
Trapped and somehow stuck behind ..... this guitar
Behind this guitar is just a boy who had a dream in his heart
Behind this guitar is just a guy who can't believe he got this far...
When I was a kid and the other kids
were doing what ..most kids do..... well there I was
Sitting on the edge of that twin bed...
picking till my fingers bled ......and it got in my blood
That's not to say ... I didn't fish or play,
goof around and act my age ......and be home by dark
But from 8 to 9 'til right here tonight ...
I've pretty much grew up behind .....this guitar
Behind this guitar is just a boy who had a dream in his heart
Behind this guitar is just a guy who can't believe he got this far...
Well I've always said that I've been blessed ...
why me ..is anybody's guess.......Well I don't know
But I'm well aware the man upstairs
could have answered any other's prayers....and left my gone
But thanks to him........my family friends
and those who got me where I am .......you know who you are...
Now with that in mind the truth is I'm
not the only one behind........this guitar
