It was a fateful morning in '74 When I picked that guitar off the floor Where it had sat for a year or more Underneath my girlfriend's bed And I guess her folks weren't much disposed To having guitars picked & songs composed Because that there case had stayed shut closed It became my guitar instead It was a '68 Harmony Wasn't much to look at But it sounded good to me It was real well battered And real well played And I fell in love with the sound it made Well I played it for her by the shore And in the parking lot of the ice cream store I played that guitar more and more Until the day that we got wed And I played it for our firstborn son I played Twinkle Star and Aiken Drum And the day that he took his first strum Felt so much pride that tears were shed It was a '68 Harmony Wasn't much to look at But it sounded good to me It was real well battered And real well played And I fell in love with the sound it made And I played it for my daughter too I played camping grounds and school revues I learned every Disney song right through Just to soothe her pretty head And I played it once more on my own When my wife had left and my kids had flown I played for a girl from San Antone She was the second one I wed It was a '68 Harmony Wasn't much to look at But it sounded good to me It was real well battered And real well played And I fell in love with the sound it made One day I loaned it to my new wife's son Who headed straight down to the Pawn & Gun And traded it for a stack of ones He could spend on crack instead And I hope whoever has it today Has friends to love and songs to play And my old guitar has things to say And music it can spread It was a '68 Harmony Wasn't much to look at But it sounded good to me It was real well battered And real well played And I fell in love with the sound it made
