Katy 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

Katy brought my guitar back today



Katy brought my guitar back today

I've seen it make her cry over and over

She told me when I wasn't there

She would wake up feeling scared

She'd hold it in her arms and be okay

Katy brought my guitar back today



We had our stormy times like anybody else

More than once I broke her heart

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

I could tell her with that old guitar

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



Katy 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

I wish she'd just thrown that thing away

Katy brought my guitar back today



I remember all those nights

Sittin' in the fireplace light

How she used to love to hear me play

Katy brought my guitar back today
