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 he never learned to play

For my thirteenth birthday, bought the guitar
Told me I should how to play
And the she gave me changed me
'Cause the music is the thing,
That got me to this point here

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

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

I that guitar with me, down the lonesome highway
And I began my search for a
And somewhere in the distance, the music and the
Of how I live come along

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

As time went by, I that I
Could climb up on the and sing
But when I sang, the songs I
It a very special thing

But songs to me were
And the business just killed me
And I withdrew my shell
With the and the lawsuits
I started drinking,
'Til I finally lost touch myself

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

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

When I around me, I saw my loving family
And a home we had built on a
I discovered the had led me to the one place
Where my and soul are re-filled

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