Capo on the 3rd

Intro    D  G  A  D


Verse
  D               D/C#        D/B        A
Katy brought my guitar back today
 G                     D                  A       D   A
That's how she let me know that it's all over
 D          D/C#
I remember all those nights
 D/B               A
Sittin' in the fireplace light
 G        D               Bm
How she loved to hear me play
 G                A           D
Katy brought my guitar back today

 D               D/C#         D/B         A
Katy brought my guitar back today
 G                     D            A        D  A           
I've seen it make her cry over and over
 D                  D/C#
She told me when I wasn't there
 D/B                  A
She would wake up feelin scared
       G              D           Bm    
She'd hold it in her arms and be okay
 G                A           D
Katy brought my guitar back today


Chorus
 G                             D
We had our stormy times like anybody else
            A                                D
(More than once) More than once I broke her heart
 G                               D                
When I couldn't tell her I was sorry by myself
 G                               A
I could tell her with that old guitar
    Bm                     G                   A
But I'm afraid this time things have gone too far


Verse
 D               D/C#        D/B        A
Katy broguht my guitar back today
 G                       D                A      D    A
I guess that means this time it's really over
 D            D/C#
As I sit and play it now
     D/B               A
The songs all seem so sad somehow
 G                  D                Bm
I wish she'd just thrown that thing away
 G                A            D
Katy brought my guitar back today


Bridge
 D          D/C
I remember all those nights
 D/B            A
Sittin in the fireplace light
 G                D              Em      D
How she used to love to hear me play
 G                     A          D
But Katy brought my guitar back today
