Luyện nghe bài hát The Gift

Jerry Walker

In a house, I'd lay upstairs,
And dream of how I'd live
Downstairs sat, a man who had
A guitar he never to play

For my thirteenth birthday, grandma bought the
Told me I learn how to play
And the gift she me changed me
the music is the main thing,
That got me to this point here

And I was lucky, I used her gift
To get in with how to live
And back I now realize, music changed my life

out of school, I had no clue
Of what it was I'd to do
I know, the open road
Was the way I chose to pass on

I took that guitar me, down the lonesome highway
And I began my for a song
And in the distance, the music and the mystery
Of how I live come along

Chorus (Last different)
That music my life, music became my life

As time by, I found that I
Could climb up on the stage and
But when I sang, the I wrote
It became a very special

But songs to me personal
And the business just killed me
And I withdrew inside my
With the contracts and the
I started drinking,
I finally lost touch with myself

I guess playing for money brought problems
That I didn't face very
Being self-taught me nothing to lean on
I had to look in

I a year off and did some fasting
Just to clean the out
And I went to Grandma's guitar
Just to hear a simple

When I around me, I saw my loving family
And a home we had on a hill
I the music had led me to the one place
Where my heart and soul are

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