Hank Williams` Guitar Lyrics

Hank Williams` Guitar lyrics



I walked into country music's Hall of Fame

An old guitar hung on the wall that wore Hank Williams' name

As I stood and wondered what a sight to see

I'll swear I heard Hank's old guitar start to talk to me



My friend you're looking at old lonely soul

While these mem'ries locked inside of me that's worth much more than gold

Oh we were closer than friends could ever be

Everything we did we did together in perfect harmony

I would remember one night up in a hotel room

To look upon his face you'd thing that his whole world was doom

But as I stood there in the corner I could see

That a song would soon be born tonight oh he reached his hand for me



And he held me like a man would hold his girl

I was a closest thing to him in his lonely world

I could fill a story begging of release

That night we wrote Your Cheatin' Heart another masterpiece



Yeah we wrote so many songs just like this

And we're proud to know that we gave to world just a little more happiness

Hank told me just before he went away

Oh buddy I'd like to take you with me but this time you will have to stay



I walked out of country music's Hall of Fame

Still I can hear Hank's old guitar crying all in vain

Like a child has lost I heard its mournful cry

Hank I'm so lonesome I could die
