[Intro]
E7 B7 E7

[Verse 1]
                         E7
Me and my guitar, always in the same mood.
                                          E7
I am mostly flesh and bones and he is mostly wood.
                              Em11
Never does grow impatient for the changes I don't know, no.
N.C.
If he can't go to heaven, maybe, I don't want to go, Lord.

[Verse 2]
E7 N.C.
Picture me in the key of E, call me Uncle John.
                           E7
Any fool can easily see that we go back a long time.
                                               E7
Feel something like fine to me, there's no such thing as the wrong time.
N.C.                                          E
He hops up on my knee, singing, get down, Pops, it's song time.

[Bridge]
E          F#/G#          C#m7          F#m7            B              E
Every now and then I'm a lonely man, it's nice to know that I've got a friend.
F#/G#             C#m7                 B7                                 A7
Puts his power right in my hand, all I've got to do is the best I can, if I can.

[Interlude]
E7 A7 E7

[Verse 3]
E7 N.C.
Got a dog named David, got a bird named Dinah,
                     E7
got a birthmark on my thigh in the shape of Mainland China.
                      E7
Got a somewhat southern accent cause I come from Carolina,
N.C.
and if you want to find us, we'll be walking right behind you.

[Bridge]
E            F#/G#         C#m7         F#m7          B          E
I hear horns, I hear voices, I hear strings,
F#/G#                   C#
Seems I was born with too many choices.
B7                    A7
Now what am I going to do with all these extra things,
                       A7
as they serve to confuse me, really.

[Outro]
E7             Bm7               A 7
It's me and my guitar, essentially me and my guitar.
                       E7
Oh, maybe a few friends fall by for tea, a little bit of 'who do you love?'
                                         E7
But pay no attention to the man behind the curtain, it's me and my guitar.
                                                               E7
Having fun, boogie-woogie, uh-huh, me and my guitar, me and my guitar...
