Sing 'Em Good My Friend

[Intro] He was selling' an old guitar and I bought it I saw her smiling' picture in his wallet He said I call her baby but her Christian name is, Charlotte [Verse 1] She spends her days downtown hooked up to some machine They say time can heal, but time can't heal everything The lord's gonna take her home real soon flying' on, angel wings [Pre-Chorus] I'm gonna cry right now and that's okay We're all gonna die, someday You won't remember a single word I'm trying to say [Chorus] It's all a grand delusion when you think you're in control She's all I got left, I'm selling' everything I own There's no good in a goodbye, it's the beginning of the end I left some songs in this guitar Sing Em' Good My Friend [Break] Ah Yeah [Verse 2] This old guitar case has been a million miles Been a fools disciple, missed dance recitals, and the birth of every child Honestly, honesty never goes out of style Sing the pain my friend [Verse 3] So the world see's her as just desperate, gray, and old All I see is my true love, my heart, my life, my soul At least for one more night I got a beautiful wrinkled hand to hold Sing the truth my friend [Pre-Chorus] [Chorus] It's all a grand delusion when you think you're in control She's all I got left, I'm selling' everything I own There's no good in a goodbye, it's the beginning of the end I left some songs in this guitar Sing Em' Good My Friend [Bridge] I'm gonna sing the pain away I'm gonna sing the truth, and then I'm gonna sing em' good, for my old friend [Verse 4] Well I cried when I got in my truck, so I put on my shades Looked up at the crimson sky, as the sun began to fade And for the first time, in a long time, I swear I think I prayed [Outro] I'm gonna sing the pain away I'm gonna sing the truth, and then I'm gonna sing em' good, for my old friend Yeah my old friend
