Backstory:
Last year there was a pitch opportunity on song u for Jason Aldean. I didn't make the deadline due to well; Life but I did some research on him and found this song fits him perfectly as he first learned to play from his Dad. Nuff said.
Lyrics:
Playin Guitar With Daddy - Key A
[Verse 1]
I used to play guitar with Daddy
He taught me all the basic chords
He never would drive a Caddy
Didn't want to make a record
He had no desire to
Get caught up in the music game
His boots were dirty and worn
But he was happy just the same
[Chorus]
I remember the sound of his laughter
As we played our favorite songs
Now he's gone but I play my guitar
And his memory helps me along
[Verse 2]
Well I turned down a scholarship
Got a job at a local pub
Now I play my old acoustic
While they sit and get a buzz
I try to ease life's worries
With the songs that I sing
Like those old songs did for me
When I played guitar with Daddy
[Chorus]
I remember the sound of his laughter
As we played our favorite songs
Now he's gone but I play my guitar
And his memory helps me along
[Verse 3]
When I strum the chords he taught me,
I feel his presence near
His lessons and his wisdom
Echo in my ear
I may never be as good as him,
But playin guitar will always be
A way to remember my Daddy
And the love he shared with me
[Bridge]
So I'll keep on strumming, keep on singing,
Cause I know he'll live forever
In the music that I play
[Chorus]
I remember the sound of his laughter
As we played our favorite songs
Now he's gone but I play my guitar
And his memory helps me along
[Instrumental Outro]
