about

A song about guitars I see in places like Applebees and the Cracker Barrel. Even old and/or crappy guitars should be played now and then!

lyrics

When I see a guitar
used as a decoration
I want to take it home to play.

I suppose there are worse fates
but it's not serving its purpose
I wouldn't wish that on the least of these.

All a guitar wants to do is play.

But I guess I'm just projecting
guitars aren't anthropomorphic
and there's no way I could save them all.

Started with the Velveteen Rabbit
goes way beyond Toy Story 3
I want everyone and everything to feel complete.

All I want to do in life is play.

When I see a guitar
unloved, collecting dust
I want to take it home to play.
