Verse
In nineteen seventy something
They hunted up production
Made that makin’ model hard to find
Learned everything he’d play me
From Hard Days Now to Annie
Didn’t know how much I’d miss it at the time
Chorus
I swear his voice like echoes
Runnin’ through the world and meddle
Teachin’ me ’bout so much more
Than picking strings and playing chords
Yeah life gets hard and God knows where I’d be
Without the songs my dad’s guitar left in me
Verse
I remember them both sayin’
It’s a six month separation
Love just need space to heal sometimes
But he never felt that far away
Every time I opened up that case
And found that piece of him he left behind
Chorus
I swear his voice like echoes
Runnin’ through the world and meddle
Teachin’ me ’bout so much more
Than picking strings and playing chords
Yeah life gets hard and God knows where I’d be
Without the songs my dad’s guitar left in me
Bridge
There’s something in the craftsmanship
That makes it sing this way
Oh ’bout how the master’s touch just like him someday
Chorus
I swear his voice like echoes
Runnin’ through the world and meddle
Teachin’ me ’bout so much more
Than picking strings and playing chords
Yeah life gets hard and God knows where I’d be (Where I’d be)
Without the songs my dad’s guitar left in me
