lyrics

My Rocket Ship

This guitar is a rocket ship
takes me far away from here
to another frame of mind
where all my sorrows disappear

This guitar is a time machine
brings my mother back to me
if only for a little while
still it's makin' me believe

That I can reach beyond myself
I can almost touch the stars
it taught me I could be somebody else
I have faith in this guitar

This guitar is a roaring train
teaching me to roam
takes me anywhere I wanna go
always makes me feel at home

That I can reach beyond myself
I can touch another heart
it taught me I could be somebody else
I have faith in this guitar

Some say it's just a box of wood
old and warped and used
I'm not one to argue with the facts
but they don't know her like I do

This guitar is a rocket ship
it's not tethered to the ground
shown me things I never could've dreamed of
and it never lets me down

Without it I would be somebody else
I have faith in this guitar
