Bon Jovi - Scars On This Guitar (Toronto 2017) chords
Start Jamming...
[N] And you got Bon [Ab] Jovi right here where you belong.
[C] Not bad for a Tuesday.
[Eb] [G] This next [Dm] song is called [Bb] The Scars on this Guitar.
[Gm] In [C] 2014, after the last tour, [Db]
[C] it was a tough tour.
We walked by that guitar [A] [D] 365 times.
Every time I walked by my guitar, [C] I gave that thing [B] the finger.
And you know what?
[C] For most of the year, [Fm] I could swear that that guitar gave [B] me the finger back.
But come [Abm] 2015, when this thing started to take [B] some shape, I started to tell some [E] stories.
[B] [E] And I would tell it in a way that it was a little bit of, you know, [B] empathy.
And the guitar would sort of talk [E] back to me.
And I'd hold it in my arms [B] and say, you know, I'm hurt.
I'm healing.
[E] Talk to me.
[B]
And like an old friend, [E]
it let me talk and just listen.
[B]
It nodded once in a while.
[E]
[B] And thank you for the [E] opportunity to tell [B] that story to you.
[E] The scars, [Em] well, they don't go [B] away.
Maybe they fade a [E] little bit over time.
But [B] it's what makes life [E] interesting, right?
Whatever don't kill you, [B]
makes you stronger.
[E]
We're plenty [B] strong.
We're plenty strong.
[E] It's alright.
[B] It's alright.
[E]
It's another [B] Friday night out somewhere.
[E] A little drunk and worn out from the [B] show.
[E] [B] It's a hallway to a hotel room.
[E] The truck's already rolling down the [Gb]
road.
[Abm]
[Bbm]
[E] I find the lights take off my coat.
See her there just lying [B] on the bed.
[E]
[B] She's seen me through my yesterdays.
[Gb] Tonight God knows I'm needing her [B] again.
[Gb]
[Abm] She's [Bbm] the [B] place I [E] call when there's nowhere [B] left to run to.
[E] She's [B] the one I [E] call when there's no one to [Abm] hold on to.
[Gb]
[Bbm] She's [Abm] been with me late at night when I was [E] drowning in the dark.
And [Abm] she heard my every word when I was [E] pouring out my heart.
So I [B] thank my lucky stars for [Gb] every crack, scratch, and scar on this [E] guitar.
She's [Abm] given me her best when [E] I am at my worst.
When [Abm] I can't find the pieces, fingers [E] scratching in the dirt.
She [B] offers no forgiveness, [Gb] cussing like the man in her.
She's the [B]
place [E]
with nowhere left to [B] run to.
[E]
She's [B] the one I
[E] call when there's no one to [Abm] hold on to.
[Gb]
She's been [Abm] with me late at night when I was [E] drowning in the dark.
And [Abm] she heard my every word when I was [E] pouring out my heart.
So I [B] thank my lucky stars for [Gb] every crack, scratch, and scar on this [E] guitar.
[B]
[E]
[B]
[E]
[B] Morning like a freight train, [E] last night still ringing in [B] my head.
[E]
Before [B] today becomes tomorrow, [E] tonight I blow out to it all [Gb] again.
[Abm]
[Gb] She's the [B] place I call [E] when there's nowhere left [B] to run to.
[E]
She's the [B]
one I [E] call when there's no one to hold [Abm] on to.
[Gb]
She's been [Abm] with me late at night when I was [E] drowning in the dark.
And she [Abm]
heard my every word when I was [E] pouring out my heart.
So I [B] thank my lucky stars for every [Gb] crack, scratch, and scar on this [E] guitar.
So [B] I thank my lucky stars for every [Gb] crack, scratch, and scar on this [E] guitar.
