That Old Beat Up Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[G]Well I fou[C]nd her in a pawnshop
Somewhere [F]up in [C]Ohio
Where I guess some
rounder came up short
And he [G]had to let her go
[C]Cost me ninety dollars
But she's [F]worth much more by [C]far
Cause I never had a better friend
Than that [G]old beat up gui[C]tar

[Verse 2]
She [F]didn't look like too [G]much
Just a [C]Roy Smeck Stage De[F]luxe
But a lady has never [C]faired as well
Who'd [G]traveled through so [C]much

[Verse 3]
[C]She picked up the name of Angel
In [F]an old New Orleans [C]bar
Where a drunken poet drew one
On [G]the top of that guitar
[C]Old Dave Stovally marked her
[F]Scratched the [C]song
right out of his heart
Seems everyone who used her
Scarred that [G]old beat up guitar

[Verse 4]
[C]She did[F]n't look like too muc[G]h
Just a [C]Roy Smeck Stage De[F]luxe
But a lady has never [C]faired as well
Who'd [G]traveled through so [C]much
[G]

[Verse 5]
[C]
She traveled with me [F]always
Through the alleys and [C]bars
Songs I sang and friends I knew
Were part [G]of that guitar
At nights [C]it was my pillow
[F]Sleeping underneath the [C]stars
Day and night I stayed alive
With that [G]old beat up guitar

[Verse 6]
[C]She did[F]n't look like too muc[G]h
Just a [C]Roy Smeck Stage De[F]luxe
But a lady has [C]never faired as well
Who'd [G]traveled through so much
[C]

[Verse 7]
Yeah a ramblin man he
has his troubles
Hanging [F]on to all that he owns
[C]After many years of travelin'
That gui[G]tar fell by the road
Then [C]one night in New Mexico
I [F]stumbled into this [C]bar
Angel laid there smilin'
On that [G]old beat up guitar

[Interlude 1]
[C][F][G][C][F][C]

[Verse 8]
[G]Well [C]I took her from the wall
Ran my [F]hands across the [C]scars
Played again the old songs
That were [G]written on that guitar
[C]Friends I've loved and lost
Many [F]nights inside of a [C]bar
Came back so clearly singing with
That [G]old beat up guitatr

[Verse 9]
[C]She [F]didn't look like too [G]much
Just a [C]Roy Smeck Stage De[F]luxe
But a lady has never [C]faired as well
Who'd [G]traveled through so [C]much
[G]

[Interlude 2]
[C][F][C]
[G][C][F][C]
[G][C]
[G]Now she

[Verse 10]
[C]travels with me always
Through the [F]alleys and [C]bars
[G]Son[C]gs I sing and friends I know
They are a [G]part of that guitar
At [C]nights it is my pillow
[G]Sleeping und[F]erneath the[C] stars
Day and night I stayed alive
With that [G]old beat up guitar

[Verse 11]
[C]She did[F]n't look like too muc[G]h
Just a [C]Roy Smeck Stage De[F]luxe
But a lady has [C]never faired as well
Who'd [G]traveled through so [C]much
