[00:00.00]The Guitar (吉他) - Guy Clark
[00:20.51]Well I was passing by a pawn shop
[00:23.54]In an older part of town
[00:25.15]
[00:25.73]Something caught my eye
[00:28.09]And I stopped and turned around
[00:30.41]
[00:30.93]I stepped inside and there I spied
[00:33.54]In the middle of it all
[00:35.57]Was a beat up old guitar
[00:37.95]
[00:38.64]Hanging on the wall
[00:39.67]
[00:40.74]What do you want for that piece of junk
[00:43.25]I asked the old man
[00:45.22]
[00:46.10]He just smiled and took it down
[00:48.25]And he put it in my hand
[00:50.04]
[00:50.69]He said you tell me what it's worth
[00:52.86]
[00:53.38]You're the one who wants it
[00:55.67]Turn it up play a song
[00:57.97]And let's just see what haunts it
[01:00.16]
[01:05.59]So I hit a couple of cords
[01:07.23]In my old country way of strumming
[01:09.98]
[01:10.65]And then my fingers turned to lightning
[01:12.62]Man I never heard it coming
[01:15.80]It was like I always knew it
[01:18.12]I just don't know where I learned it
[01:20.56]
[01:21.11]It wasn't nothing but the truth
[01:22.88]So I just reared back and burned it
[01:26.08]
[02:05.12]Well I lost all track of time
[02:07.81]There was nothing I couldn't pick
[02:09.98]Up and down the neck
[02:11.83]I never missed a lick
[02:14.05]
[02:14.76]The guitar almost played itself
[02:16.55]
[02:17.07]There was nothing I could do
[02:18.67]
[02:19.74]It was getting hard to tell
[02:21.55]Just who was playing who
[02:23.29]
[02:29.65]When I finally put it down
[02:31.02]
[02:32.25]I couldn't catch my breath
[02:34.73]My hands were shaking
[02:36.34]And I was scared to death
[02:38.83]
[02:39.58]The old man finally got up
[02:41.90]Said where in the hell you been
[02:43.92]
[02:44.67]I've been waiting all these years
[02:46.97]For you to stumble in
[02:49.48]Then he took down an old dusty case
[02:51.60]Said go on and pack it up
[02:53.75]
[02:54.73]You don't owe me nothing
[02:57.31]And then he said good luck
[02:59.24]There was something spooky in his voice
[03:01.95]And something strange on his face
[03:04.35]When he shut the lid
[03:06.38]I saw my name was on the case
