Katie brought my guitar back today

That's how she let me know

It's all over

I remember all those nights

Sittin' in the fireplace light

How she loved to hear me play

But Katie brought my guitar back today



Katie brought my guitar back today

I've seen it make her cry

Over and over

She told me when I wasn't there

And she would wake up feelin' scared

She'd hold it in her arms and be ok

Katie brought my guitar back today



We had our stormy times like anybody else

(more than once) More than once

I broke her heart

When I couldn't tell her I was sorry by myself

I could tell her with that ol' guitar

But I'm afraid this time things have gone too far



Katie brought my guitar back today

I guess that means this time

It's really over

As I sit and play it now

The songs all seem so sad somehow

Wish she'd just thrown that thing away

But Katie brought my guitar back today



I remember all those nights

Sittin' in fireplace light

How she loved to hear me play

But Katie brought my guitar back today
