Verse 1
G 
Hey, who's guitar?
That's pretty beat up, Jim.
How about I play something?
Jimmy, you really can play that thing?
Can you really play that guitar?
Well, let me tell you a little story.
I once found this old guitar,
it was broken
D 
I polished up a few of the dings,
put on a new set of strings
G 
Now it helps me to play some of my songs
I once had this old blue truck,
it didn't run too well
Em 
D 
I changed the spark plug wires,
my buddy Mike got me a set of tires
And now it gets me to
G 
where I need to go
Em 
See with more than your eyes,
A 
hear with more than your ears
C 
D 
Some things that seem finished
G 
are still good for you
Em 
Take my advice,
A 
it's really up to you
C 
D 
Some things that seem finished
G 
are better than new
I once had this real great girl
and I wish her well
D 
I really don't know why,
but sometimes I made her cry
G 
I wish I had that chance with her again
I once had this old grandma
and I miss her so
D 
Sometimes we'd sit and talk
Maybe go for a walk
She'd get me through the
G 
problems of my days
Em 
See with more than your eyes,
A 
hear with more than your ears
C 
D 
Some things that seem finished
G 
are still good for you
Em 
Take my advice,
A 
it's really up to you

Some things that seem finished

See with more than your eyes,

Some things that seem finished
G 
aren't so good for you
Em 
Take my advice,
A 
it's really up to you

That was great, Jimmy.
Good job.
You gotta give it a chance.
C 
Sounds better than it looks,
D 
don't it? Yeah, is.
Better than new.
That's how you get all the girls.
G 
Solar, that or that dance.
