Katy brought my guitar back today I left it there to play when I'd stay over And I remember all those nights Sittin' in the fireplace light How she loved to hear me play And Katy brought my guitar back today Katy brought my guitar back today I've seen it make her cry over and over She told me when I wasn't there And she would wake up feelin' scared She'd hold it in her arms and be okay Katy brought my guitar back today We had our stormy times like anybody else
Oh, more than once I broke her heart And when I couldn't tell her I was sorry by myself I could tell her with an old guitar But I'm afraid this time things have gone too far Katy brought my guitar back today I guess that means this time it's really over And as I sit and play it now The songs all seem so sad somehow I wish that I'd 've left it in the case Katy brought my guitar back today
