[Bm] [G]
[A] [F#]
[Bm] I was [B] passing by an [G] old pawn shop in an old part of [A] town something caught my eye
[F#] and I stopped turned around [Bm] stepped inside and [G] there I spied right in the
middle of it all [A] was an old guitar [F#] hanging right on the wall [Bm] well what do
you want for that old piece [G] of junk I asked the old man [A] he just smiled took it
[F#] down and put it in my hand [Bm] you tell me what it's worth [G] since you're the one that
wanted [A] it tune it up play a [F#] song let's just see what haunts [Bm] it
[B] [G]
[A] [F#]
[Bm] so I hit a couple chords in [G] my old country way of strumming [A] then my fingers
turned to lightning [F#] I never saw it [Bm] coming it's like I always knew it [G] I just
didn't know I learned [A] it wasn't nothing but the truth [F#] so I just reared back and
well [Bm] [G]
[A] [F#]
[Bm] I lost all track of time nothing I couldn't pick [A] up and down the neck man
[F#] I never missed a lick [Bm] the guitar almost played itself [G] and there was nothing I
couldn't do [A] it was getting hard to tell [F#] just who was playing who [Bm] when I finally
put it down [G] I couldn't catch my breath [A] my hands were shaking and [F#] I was getting
scared to death the old man finally got [G] up said where in the hell you [A] been I've
been waiting all these [F#] years for you to stumble in [Bm] then he took it down on [G] the dusty case
said [A] go ahead pack up you don't owe me [F#] nothing man said good luck [Bm] there was
something spooky [G] in his voice and something strange in [A] his face when I saw
him shut the [F#] lid and saw my name on the case
