[B] [E]
[B] [E]
[B] I can't recall one [E] time in my [B] life
I felt as lonely [F#] as I do [B] tonight
I [E] [B] feel like I can lay down [E] and get up [B] no more
[E] [B] It's a damnedest feeling I [F#] never felt [B] before
[E]
[B]
Tonight I feel [E] like an old [B] violin
[E]
Soon to [B] be put away [F#] and never played [B] again
[E] [B] Don't ask me why I feel like this
[E] Hell, I [B] can't say
I [E]
only [B] wish this feeling [F#] would just [B] go away
[E] [B] I guess it's cause the [E] truth
Is the hardest [B] thing I ever faced
Cause you can't [E] change the [B] truth
In [F#] the slightest way [C] I tried
[B]
So [E] [B] I asked myself
I said, John
[E] Where do you go [B] from here?
[E] [B] Then like a fool
I turned [F#] around
I [B] looked in the mirror
[E] And [B] there I was sitting
[E] An old [B] violin
Soon [E] [B] to be put away
[F#] And never played [B] again
So
[E] [B] one more time, just to be sure
I said, John
Where [E] in the [B] hell do you go from here?
[E] [B] And you know
There [F#] wasn't a nickel's worth of difference
When I [B] looked in the mirror
[E]
Cause [B] there I was sitting
[E] An old [B] violin
Soon [E] to [B] be put away
[F#] And never played [B] again
And just like that it hit me
[E] Why that old [B] violin and I were just alike
We'll give her all to music
[F#] And soon we'll give our life
[B] Precious memories
How they linger
