In a house, I'd lay upstairs, And dream of how I'd live Downstairs sat, a man who had A guitar he learned to play
For my thirteenth birthday, grandma bought the Told me I learn how to play And the she gave 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 touch how to live And back I now realize, music changed my life
Just out of school, I had no Of what it was I'd to do I only know, the road Was the way I to pass on through
I took that with me, down the lonesome highway And I began my for a song And somewhere in the distance, the and the mystery Of how I would come along
Chorus (Last different) That music saved my life, music my life
As time went by, I found I climb up on the stage and sing But when I sang, the I wrote It became a very thing
But to me were personal And the side just killed me And I withdrew my shell With the and the lawsuits I heavy drinking, 'Til I lost touch with myself
I guess playing music for brought problems That I didn't face well Being self-taught me nothing to lean on I had to in myself
I took a off and did some fasting Just to clean the out And I back to Grandma's guitar Just to hear a simple
When I look around me, I saw my family And a we had built on a hill I discovered the had led me to the one place Where my heart and soul are
Music saved my life, yeah, music saved my life Yes, really saved my life
