"If I Could Play The Guitar" Lyrics

If I could play the guitar
I would busk in all the cities of the world
I could be amongst the people who walk by
Little piece in the puzzle of their lives

(And) if I could play the guitar
I could sing to all the people of the world
Some may drop just a few coins in my case
Some may simply turn around and give me a smile

But if I could
Just make them feel
What is inside me
What lies beneath my words
We could really make a change
If we learned to give not take

(And) If I could play the guitar
I would busk in all the cities of the world

I would sing that what has meaning in our lives
Can't be bought, sold or rented out

Solo

And we could learn
That in the end
There is no meaning
Living an empty life
We should sit around the fire
We should teach our children stories

If I could play the guitar
I would busk in all the cities of the world
You could stop and be in the puzzle of my life
You could listen and be happy for a while
