but he’s still trying to break his momma’s back.

Solo Guitar – Same Chords as intro.
he loved that guitar just like a girlfriend
but ever good thing comes to an end
now he just sits in his room all day
whistling every note he used to play
there out to be a law with no bail
smash a guitar and you go to jail
with no chance for early parole
you don;t get out till you get some soul
chorus
late at night the end of the road
he wished he still had the old guitar to hold
he’d rock it like a baby in his arms
never let it come ot any harm
chorus
