Piece of Wood and Steel Lyrics

I can feel your arms around me like it was yesterday
I can feel your breathin' next to me, and hear your laughter gay
You tried to tell me what was right and I told you what was real
All I ever live for now is this piece of wood and steel
Verse 2 - Half step higher
In a world that's full of trouble, a world that's full of pain,lord
Many fall beside the road, and they never rise again.
Many more are bended low or broken at their will
All I need to carry on is this piece of wood and steel
Verse 3 - Half step higher
I was born my mother's only son she loves me all she can,
but there isnt much to say to her since I became a man
I often met the devil, but I never made a deal
I just thank the lord for hands to play this piece of wood and steel
Verse 4 - Half step higher
It's face is scarred and beaten,like the ragged clothes I wear
Like the body that god gave me, I might give it better care
But I play it for the ladies and I play it for a meal
I play the strings just to hear 'em ring on this piece of wood and steel.
Verse 5 - Half step higher
I'm growin' tired of searchin' now there's nothing more I crave
Give or take a little time and you can write it on my grave
There's nothin' more that I care to own, nothin' left to feel
All I ever wanted was this piece of wood and steel
Play that guitar
Repeat Verses 1, 2 and 3 all in Dm
(Spoken)
I'll be playin' this guitar till the day I die.
