I Don't Want to Play Guitar Anymore - Alejandro Escovedo

Don’t know if I’m dying

But I can’t catch my breath

I’ve given up on living

Terrified of death

Black wall of smoke

Rolling right through my town

I used to run but now I take it laying down

And I wonder why I don’t even wanna play guitar anymore

If there’s no stories left to say

That’s the end of everything

When I was a young man

I made a lot of noise

Messed up every which way

It was all search and destroy

Not proud of it all

But then I’m not ashamed

And lately I can’t stand the sound of my own voice

And I don’t know why I don’t even wanna play guitar anymore

When there’s no stories left to say

That’s the end of everything

Sha la la la la

Sha la la la

Where there’s a will

There’s a dead man close behind

And that’s no way to ease this crippled mind

And I wonder why I don’t even wanna play guitar anymore

When there’s no stories left to sing

That’s the end of everything

When there’s no stories left to sing

Say goodbye to everything

Sha la la la
