​​guitar man Lyrics by Prentiss

i tried

2023

[Verse 1]
On the side of the road with nobody, no home and some strings
There's a man on the phone he's got places to go but I sing
[Pre-Chorus]
He stayed for a while and asked me how it all works
So I grabbed my guitar and searched deep through my heart for some words
[Chorus]
Singin', I found my purpose if none of this works, it's okay (It's okay)
And if life doesn't flourish, I busk all these words to my grave (Words to my grave)
And if life doesn't matter then screw it, I had a great time
And if time doesn't matter then screw it, I had a great life
[Verse 2]
Got a gig at a restaurant right down the street
They came up for the catfish but stayed around for me
As I walked up on stage I could hear my heartbeat
Seein' people whisper all of their eyes on me
I sang my first song and saw the crowd dance
I sang my last song and heard the crowd chant, "Encore"
So I stepped to the mic for one more
[Chorus]
Singin', I found my purpose if none of this works, it's okay (It's okay)
And if life doesn't flourish, I busk all these words to my grave (Words to my grave)
And if life doesn't matter then screw it, I had a great time
And if time doesn't matter then screw it, I had a great life
[Bridge]
(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
(Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
I can't find (Oh-oh, oh-oh) a reason why (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
I'll ever change (Oh-oh, oh-oh) , I stay the same
[Pre-Chorus]
He stayed for a while and asked me how it all works
So I grabbed my guitar and searched deep through my heart for some words
[Chorus]
Singin', I found my purpose if none of this works, it's okay (It's okay)
And if life doesn't flourish, I busk all these words to my grave (Words to my grave)
And if life doesn't matter then screw it, I had a great time
And if time doesn't matter then screw it, I had a great life
