Story behind the song
After a hard break-up, I got to writing and humming this tune and my feelings about how my guitar was always a constant in my life through everything. This is my debut single that has kicked off my singing career. I performed this song at a Kansas Music Festival and a clip of the performance was on CMT.

Lyrics
When I wake up in the mornings
And no soul is around
When I feel alone and scared
With no one to comfort me
When life is unforgiving
When my eyes shed a tear
I can always count on you
My Dear Old Guitar
Chorus:
With your long wooden neck
Your voice as cold as steel
Your warmth a melodie
Your comfort a gentle tune
No one could ever replace you
My trusty old guitar
No man dare replace you
My Dear Old Guitar
After the day is done
And the sun has gone to bed
As the man in the moon brightly stares
As the stars dance in the air
As the breeze blows away my troubles
As the Night calms my fears
I can always count on you
My Dear Old Guitar
Chorus
