Lyrics

Old Guys With Guitars
music and lyrics by Peter Boyer and Christine Boyer - SOCAN

1. Play me a song from way back when
About changin’ the world that’s how it was then
Everyone was young and about to be stars
There weren’t any old guys with guitars
2. Everyone played some better than others
Some wrote their own and some just did covers
Singer/songwriters played the cafes and bars
There weren’t any old guys with guitars 

CHORUS

We’re old guys with guitars we ain’t givin’ up
Hope springs eternal, we can’t get enough
The sky’s the limit, we’re still in it
We could make it so we’re holdin’ on
We’re old guys with guitars we ain’t played our last song

BREAK

3. Pickin’ and grinnin’ singin’ and dreamin’
Once our guitars we a way to meet women
Now our wives never worry they know where we are
We’re with a bunch of old guys with guitars
