So I met a guy
He´s from New Jersey
Took me out to get some food
What you do I asked I play the guitar
Well baby I play the guitar too

Do you have plans for Saturday
Do you think that you could watch me play
I don´t know it depends on what´s goin´ on backstage

So we talked some more of scales and chords
And when I first attempted to
And he told me that´s not the way to go
I said baby I don´t get you

Don´t you ever play what you feel inside
No baby I ain´t got the time to figure out
what makes you smile or makes you tend to lie

It´s too late now
I´ll show you how
Put that guitar down
Put that guitar down

Well he started playing a melody
And wanted me to start soloing
I don´t know quite what to do
He said pick it up and I´ll help you through

Don´t you ever do what you feel inside
No baby I ain´t got the time to figure out
what makes you smile or makes you tend to lie

It´s too late now
I´ll show you how
Put that guitar down
Put that guitar down

Time oh time it slips so fine
It kills me about every time
I decide that time has come
Figure I´ll go get me some
That´s not what your supposed to do
Don´t dare go back the failures too
Maybe I´m a failure too so lets get on with it

Don´t you ever play what you feel inside
No baby I ain´t got the time to figure out
what makes you smile or makes you tend to lie
It´s too late now
And I´ll show you how
Put that guitar down
Put that guitar down
