Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Been talkin’ to the ceiling fan

Blades just spin, won’t say my name

Ashtray full of almost prayers

Burned down before they reached the flame

My fingers got their stories wrong

Bent these strings in every bar

Every lie I wrapped in song

Cut another notch into this guitar

[Chorus]

So God

If You’re listenin’ through the smoke and the scars

I ain’t askin’ for a mansion or a brand-new start

Just wash this rust from my hands

And the dust from these bars

If You can’t forgive the man

Then forgive this guitar

(yeah… this poor guitar)

[Verse 2]

I sold Sunday for a Friday night

Traded scripture for a bathroom stall

Wrote Your name in a shaky line

Then crossed it out on a crumpled wall

Mama said You keep the books

Every debt, every quiet sin

I been payin’ with these crooked hooks

But the tab just keeps rollin’ in

[Chorus]

So God

If You’re listenin’ through the smoke and the scars

I ain’t askin’ for a mansion or a brand-new start

Just wash this rust from my hands

And the dust from these bars

If You can’t forgive the man

Then forgive this guitar

(oh, let it slide, let it slide)

[Bridge]

[Guitar drops to soft, raw chords]

Maybe You remember when I was a kid

Humming little hallelujahs into my pillow

Now it’s backroom deals and motel sheets

And a busted case in the hallway, sittin’ like a widow

I fake my faith in the spotlight glare

But when the crowd goes home, it’s just me and this chair

Me and this neck full of calloused regret

I talk, You’re quiet

But the strings answer yet

[Chorus]

So God

If You’re listenin’ through the smoke and the scars

I ain’t askin’ for a mansion or a brand-new start

Just wash this rust from my hands

And the dust from these bars

If You can’t forgive the man

Then forgive this guitar

(please… this old guitar)

[Outro]

[Everything fades, lone voice and guitar]

If there’s mercy left in who You are

Take me slow

But spare
