Red Guitar

 

INTRO:      F (hold)      C (hold )        G      C      G    C     G       C      G  (hold )

1.  There's a blind man on the corner,  polishing a red guitar

         C                                    G                                    C                                G

And when he get's done he puts it back on,  and he plays like his hand's on fire

 

CHORUS:

    C                        G     C                    G

Come on,  come on,  play that red guitar

    C                     G                     F (hold)      C(hold)   G

Come on, come on,  put your money..................in the jar

 

2.  He don't need no music,  and he don't read no books

He gets his lines from the red red wine as if flows to his fingertips

Repeat Chorus - Instrumental jam

3.  And I was just a young boy,  learnin' how to play

But when I heard that red guitar,  I knew I got to have my own someday!

Repeat Chorus - Jam out
