[Verse]
          D           G
I wish my boots could talk
C                   D               G
Cause they tell you everywhere I've walked
C           D               Em
They'd have nothing good to say
C         D            G
About the day I walked away

            D         G
I wish this hat could see
C               D         G
Show me what an ass I can be
C              D                  Em    D   C
These days the mirror don't do it for me
               D         G
Well I wish my hat could see

[Chorus]
C         D            G
But if my guitar could sing
C          D        Em
It'd be singing I am sorry
C             D              Em     D   C
Through every note and every string
                   D         G
Well you would know who's to blame
C                D
I wouldn't have regret
       Em    D          C
'Cause I got nothing to say
           D            G
If only my guitar could sing

[Verse]
             D               G
I wish these walls had my memories
C                 D           G
So I could start fresh and maybe see
C               D             Em       D      C
That I was the fool, and the writing's on the walls
             D                G
I wish these walls had my memories

[Chorus]
C         D            G
But if my guitar could sing
C          D        Em
It'd be singing I am sorry
C             D              Em     D   C
Through every note and every string
                   D         G
Well you would know who's to blame
C               D
I wouldn't have regret
       Em    D          C
'Cause I got nothing to say
                 D        G
If only my guitar could sing

[Verse]
             D             G
I wish I was man enough to say
C             D            G
Exaclty how I felt on that day
C            D           Em     D      C
But here we are, and the cowboy rides away
             D             G
I wish I was man enough to say

[Chorus]
C         D                G
'Cause if my guitar could sing
C          D             Em
It be screaming hell I'm sorry
C             D              Em     D   C
Through every note and every string
               D                G
Well you would know that I'm to blame
C               D
I wouldn't have regret
       Em    D          C
'Cause I got nothing to say
     Em     D         C
Yeah I got nothing to say
           D            G
If only my guitar could sing
