Well, I love the towns, I love the crowds I love the way my life's goin' down the way it has Well, I get to singn' chase my dream, but like they say With all good things there's strings attached Don't get me wrong, my life's a song But I know me and I belong girl where you are But from time to time it feels like I'm Trapped and somehow stuck behind this guitar Behind this guitar, is just a boy who had a dream in his heart Behind this guitar, is just a guy who never dreamed he'd get this far When I was a kid and the other kids Were doin' what most kids did, well, there I was Sittin' on the edge of my twin bed Pickin' 'til my fingers bled got in my blood That's not to say I didn't fish or play Goof around and act my age, and be home by dark But from either or nine, to right here tonight You might say I pretty much grew up behind this guitar Behind this guitar, is just a boy who had a dream in his heart Behind this guitar, is just a guy who never dreamed he'd get this far Well, I've always said that I've been blessed Why me? Is anybody's guess, heck, I don't know But I'm well aware the man upstairs Could have answered any others prayers and let mine go Oh, but thanks to him, my family and friends And all those that got me where I am And you know who you are And with that in mind, the truth is I'm Not the only one behind this guitar
