[Verse]
AmI can feel your arms around me like it was yesterCday
I can Gfeel your breathin' next to me, and hear your laughter Amgay
You tried to tell me what was right and I told you what was real
GAll I ever live for now is this piece of wood and Amsteel
[Verse]
AmIn a world that's full of trouble, a world that's full ofC pain,lord
GMany fall beside the road, and they never rise Amagain.
Many more are bended low or broken at their will
GAll I need to carry on is this piece of wood andAm steel
[Verse]
BmI was born my mother's only son she loves me all she Dcan,
but there Aisnt much to say to her since I became a Bmman
I often met the devil, but I never made a deal
I just Athank the lord for hands to play this piece of wood and Bmsteel
[Verse]
CmIt's face is scarred and beaten,like the ragged clothes I Dwear
Like the Abody that god gave me, I might give it betterCm care
But I play it for the ladies and I play it for a meal
I Aplay the strings just to hear 'em ring on this piece of wood andCm steel.
[Verse]
CmI'm growin' tired of searchin' now there's nothing more IE crave
BGive or take a little time and you can write it on my Cmgrave
There's nothin' more that I care to own, nothin' left to feel
BAll I ever wanted was this piece of wood and Cmsteel
