Crying Blues guitar

You grew up with struggles
In the back of the back , that’s where they left you
Had to fight just to breathe
Took everything you had , and still you grieved
But with that guitar in your hand
You made music outta pain , it was your plan

Every string you played , every note you bent
You told your story
Yeah you played the truth
From your heart within

Your blues tells us all
Now you are a star , they all know your name
You rose up in the game

With your blues guitar
You made everyone feel your pain
Yeah you shine so bright you stand out in a crowd
You turned your scars into those old blues songs

You played in those Smokey bars , you played those holes in the wall dives
But with your old six string , you kept them alive
Every chord was a punch
Every solo a fight
Now they won’t forget you
No they will never forget your name

You made that guitar cry ,
Sometimes a little sad blues is all one needs
Sometimes a little sad blues just feel right
Yes you made them listen , turning the dark into light
Making everything alright
