Luyện nghe bài hát The Gift

Jerry Walker

In a house, I'd lay upstairs,
And of how I'd live someday
Downstairs sat, a man who had
A he never learned to play

For my thirteenth birthday, bought the guitar
Told me I should how to play
And the she gave me changed me
'Cause the is the main thing,
That got me to this here today

And I was lucky, 'cause I her gift
To get in touch how to live
And looking I now realize, music changed my life

Just out of school, I had no
Of it was I'd like to do
I only know, the road
Was the way I to pass on through

I took that guitar with me, down the highway
And I began my for a song
And somewhere in the distance, the and the mystery
Of how I would live come

(Last line different)
That music my life, music became my life

As time by, I found that I
Could up on the stage and sing
But when I sang, the songs I
It became a very special

But to me were personal
And the side just killed me
And I withdrew my shell
the contracts and the lawsuits
I heavy drinking,
'Til I finally lost with myself

I guess playing music for brought problems
That I didn't face very
Being self-taught gave me nothing to on
I had to look in

I took a year off and did some
Just to the cobwebs out
And I went back to guitar
Just to a simple sound

When I look around me, I saw my family
And a home we had built on a
I discovered the had led me to the one place
my heart and soul are re-filled

Music saved my life, yeah, really saved my life
Yes, music really saved my
