Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I have waited for forty years forty years
I have waited for forty years forty years
Let my guitar play for a while
And the sounds go up in the sky
The lonely man blues

I have waited for four years four years
I have waited for four years four years
Let my guitar play for a while
And the sounds go up in the sky
The lonely man blues

I couldn't make it oh no i couldn't make it
I couldn't make it oh no i couldn't make it
Let my guitar play for a while




And the sounds go up in the sky
The lonely man blues
