Sing 'Em Good My Friend

He was selling an old guitar at a bar I saw her smiling picture in his wallet He said "I call her 'baby' but her Christian name is Charlotte" She spends her days downtown hooked up to some machine The say time can heal but time can't heal everything The Lord's gonna take her home real soon flying on angel's wings I'm gonna cry right now and that's okay We're all gonna die someday You won't remember a single word I'm trying to say It's all a grand illusion when you think you're in control She's all I got left of sellin' everything I own There's no good in a goodbye it's the beginning of the end I left some songs in the guitar Sing 'em good my friend This old guitar and case has been in a million bars Been a fools disciple miss dance recitals And the birth of every child Honestly honesty never goes out of style So sing the pain my friend So the world she's her as just desperate grey and old All I see is my true love my heart my life my soul At least for one more night, I got a beautiful wrinkled hand to hold So sing the truth my friend I'm gonna cry right now and that's okay We're all gonna die someday You won't remember a single word I'm tryin' to say It's all a grand illusion when you think you're in control She's all I got left of selling everything I own There's no good in a goodbye it's the beginning of the end I left some songs in the guitar Sing 'em good my friend I'm gonna sing the pain I'm in I'm gonna sing the truth within I'm gonna sing them good for my old friend Well I cried when I got in my truck so I put on my shades Looked up at the crimson sky as the sun began to fade And for the first time in a long time I swear I think I prayed I'm gonna sing the pain I'm in I'm gonna sing the truth within I'm gonna sing them good for my old friend Yeah my old friend --- Sing 'Em Good My Friend - Kenny Chesney
