Me and My Guitar Songtext
von James Taylor

Me and my guitar
Always in the same mood
I am mostly flesh and bones
And he is mostly wood
Never does grow impatient
For the changes I don′t know, no
If he can't go to heaven
Maybe, I don′t want to go, no

Picture me in the key of E
Call me uncle John
Any fool can easily see
That we go back a long time
Feel something like fine to me
There's no such thing as the wrong time
He hops up on my knee
Singing, "Get down, Pops, it's song time"


Every now and then I′m a lonely man
It′s nice to know that I've got a friend
Puts his power right in my hand
And all l′ve got to do is the best I can, if I can

I got a dog named David
I got a bird named Dinah
I got a birthmark on my thigh
In the shape of Mainland China
Got a somewhat Southern accent
'Cause I come from Carolina
And if you want to find us
You′ll be walking right behind, yeah

I hear horns, I hear voices, I hear strings
Seems I was born with too many choices
Now what am I going to do with all these extra things?
As they serve to confuse me, really

It's me and my guitar
Essentially me and my guitar
Oh, maybe a few friends call by for tea
A little bit of who do you love?
But pay no attention
To the man behind the curtain
It′s me and my guitar


Having fun, boogie-woogie, gotta, uh-huh
Me and my guitar
Me and my guitar
Me and my guitar
