Jerry Jeff Walker - "The Gift"

Lyrics to The Gift :

In a boarding house, Id lay upstairs, 

And dream of how Id live someday

Downstairs there sat, a man who had

A guitar he never learned to play



For my thirteenth birthday, grandma bought the guitar

Told me I should learn how to play

And the gift she gave me changed me

Cause the music is the main thing, 

That got me to this point here today



Chorus:

And I was lucky, cause I used her gift

To get in touch with how to live

And looking back I now realize, music changed my life



Just out of school, I had no clue

Of what it was Id like to do

I only know, the open road

Was the way I chose to pass on through



I took that guitar with me, down the lonesome highway

And I began my search for a song

And somewhere in the distance, the music and the mystery

Of how I would live come along



Chorus (Last line different)

That music saved my life, music became my life



As time went by, I found that I

Could climb up on the stage and sing

But when I sang, the songs I wrote

It became a very special thing



But songs to me were personal

And the business side just killed me

And I withdrew inside my shell

With the contracts and the lawsuits

I started heavy drinking,

Til I finally lost touch with myself



Bridge:

I guess playing music for money brought problems

That I didnt face very well

Being self-taught gave me nothing to lean on

I had to look in myself



I took a year off and did some fasting

Just to clean the cobwebs out

And I went back to Grandmas guitar

Just to hear a simple sound



When I look around me, I saw my loving family

And a home we had built on a hill

I discovered the music had led me to the one place

Where my heart and soul are re-filled



Chorus: 

Music saved my life, yeah, music really saved my life

Yes, music really saved my life
