GIBSON GIRL (Key of C)
She was hiding in the closet when my wife walked out on me
She was hanging on my shoulder when I moved to Tennessee
She's been whiskey stained and
stepped on but she's always served me well
If you could coax her into talking all the stories she could tell
Other arms have tried to hold her in a hundred different bars
She's been passed around and picked on and her body's got some scars
She's been placed behind the front seat of too many peoples cars
I'll pick her up and take her home
and treat her like a star... yes I will
So sing a song you know she loves to play along
She'll put music in your heart with her song
Now her once girlish figure is starting to show some age
Lots of lines and scratches where my searching fingers played
When I hold her to my body lord I feel I own the world
To me she's more than wood and strings she's my Gibson girl
