Second Fiddle (To An Old Guitar)

Once we were so happy, you were my very own Then you bought that guitar and ruined our happy home You told me that you're gonna pick, you're gonna be a star I'm tired of playin' second fiddle to an old guitar You gaze at that guitar on your knee In a way that you never look at me This love affair of yours has gone too far And I'm tired of playin' second fiddle to an old guitar You said it wouldn't be long 'til you'd be number one That we'd have lots of money and we'd have lots of fun Well, all you've done is pick and grin and sing off key so far And I'm tired of playin' second fiddle to an old guitar You gaze at that guitar on your knee In a way that you never look at me This love affair of yours has gone too far And I'm tired of playin' second fiddle to an old guitar I've talked and preached and fought with you And tried most everything If you keep a pickin' that old guitar Then I'm gonna sing
