Behind This Guitar

I love the towns, I love the crowds
 Love the way my life's turned out
 The way it has
 I get to sing and chase my dreams
 But like they say with all good things
 There's strings attached
 Don't get me wrong my life's a song
 You know me
 I belong girl
 Where you are
 But from time to time it feels like I'm
 Trapped and somehow stuck behind this guitar
 Behind this guitar
 Just a boy who had a dream in his heart
 Behind this guitar
 Just a guy who didn't believe I'd get this far
 When I was a kid and the other kids
 Were doin' what most kids did
 Well, there I was
 Sitting on the edge of my twin bed
 Picking till my fingers bled
 And it got in my blood
 That's not to say I didn't fish or play
 Goof around and act my age
 And be home at night
 From the age of 9 till right here tonight
 You might say I pretty much grew up behind this guitar
 Behind this guitar
 just a boy who had a dream in his heart
 Behind this guitar
 Just a guy who didn't believe I'd get this far, I'd get this far
 Well I've always said that I've been blessed
 Why me? is anybody's guess
 Well, I don't know
 But I'm well aware that the man upstairs
 Could've answered any other's prayers
 And let mine go
 But thanks to him my family and friends
 Those who got me where I am
 You know who you are
 But with that in mind
 The truth is I'm
 Not the only one behind this guitar
