Verse 1 
 
E                                A7 
When I bought this guitar it had brand new strings 
E               B7 
brand new strap all those things 
E                   A7 
brand new pick both thumb and flat 
E                  B7          E 
all the elementary things like that 
 
Verse 2 
 
E                             A7 
I went ahead and took it everywhere I went 
E                               B7 
couldn't count the hours that I must've spent 
  E                                A7 
I heard the girl was lookin' for a guitar man 
       E            B7    E 
I'll ablidge her anyway I can 
 
Chorus 
       A             G#m 
'cause I can win her over 
     F#m           E 
like Romeo did Juliet 
   A          G#m 
If I can only show her 
      F#                                     B 
I can learn to pick that Figato(?) lick like Chet

Verse 3 
 
E                               A7 
It'll take more than Mel Bay 1, 2, & 3 
       E                     B7 
If I'm ever gonna play like CGP(?) 
   E                           A7 
My legato is staccato but what I don't fret 
   E                      B7      E 
is droppin' any note that I don't get
