Southern Guitars

Tonight, I'm heading down to California

I'm gonna sing my songs and I'm gonna pass the hat

I'm gonna visit all the memories that I find

And retrace every step when you were mine

Oh, those Southern guitars

Sing to me like a distant melody

Oh, those Southern guitars

When my friends are gone and I'm on my own

I'm gonna listen for that guitar tone

And find my way back home

I hear your voice in every song that I sing

I listen to the ghosts that haunt my past

Well, I thought I saw you from that stage, did I dream it?

With the footlights shining up and I wish that

Oh, those Southern guitars

Would sing to me like a distant melody

Oh, those Southern guitars

When my friends are gone and I'm on my own

I'm gonna listen for that guitar tone

And find my way back home

I hear that soft voice calling, I do

And with the sweet strains falling

I'm once again dancing with you

Oh, those Southern guitars

They sing to me like a distant melody

Oh, those Southern guitars

When my friends are gone and I'm on my own

I'm gonna listen for that old guitar tone

And find my way back home

I'm gonna find my way back home

Back home
