lyrics

Picked up on the side of the road
Got guitar in hand, no further home
And time has come to pass me by

And every time you showed me
Those chords, I could not help but
To take them home and fly

Fast forward 20 years and
You’re still the man who
Lived to let me write

Sit down and change ya strings
And learn to sing
About the gifts of life

The gifts of life
Don’t lose sight

Looking back at past mistakes
We memories are held so dearly
Let’s take this and have ourselves a night

In times of war and peace
There’s those that can take the pain and
They know it will be alright

Kick back have a drink and
Maybe smoke some illegal things and we’ll talk
About the gifts of life

The gifts of life
Don’t lose sight
