#1


You said that you would love me more
If I could play guitar
You said that you'd be proud of me
If I was a country star;
So I bought the white stetson hat
And a pair of cowboy boots
Signed up for my guitar lessons
Found my redneck roots.

Then before I even learned one chord
You found somebody new
And when I learned what a capo was
I learned about you too;
I learned to read notes and rhythem
But when I turned the page
You went out dancing to replace me
With someone half my age.

So it's just my new guitar and me
As I strum these old strings
I see your sexy winking eyes,
And long for times back then;
But the Opry stage's announcing me
Tonight it's my debut
My new record climbed to number 1
The same year I lost you.
