TIGJLK here are the words and chords as requested

D                          G                     D
we never made that one last ride
Bm                                    G                   D
been so long since you were by my side

you were no there for my fare well toast
who'll raise a glass to my lonely ghost

pour me a whiskey before they pull up the sheet
there will be no grass growing under my feet

chorus
D                                G                   D
seems so long but its only begun
C                                      G                           D
you cant stop a bullet once its left the gun
D                                 G                 D
dont wait to long my prodigal son
C                              G                                     D
you cant go back once its all said and done

dont be surprised when that telephone rings
he hung around waiting but he left here last spring
you try and call back but there's no one at home
just leave a message for the kids when their grown
I hope they get that message some day
before some one comes and takes it away

chorus

memories will haunt you like a ghost from the past
you'll be amazed how the years go fast
I look in the mirror full of regret
because I see myself in your silhouette
faces are fading that ive never met
and voices are missing from my last duet

chorus

I work with  a guy who bought one, expensive brand  dont recall the name now but the sound was nit all that great on it. my  $175 Alvarez beater sounded better. reminded me of my little travel martin guitar  made from laminates.  any way my opinion for the cost not worth it unless your leaving it out side over night or plan on playing it IN the pool.

https://soundcloud.com/mojo01/the-parking-lot 

added words and chords if any one is intrested


G          Em                   C             G
I saw someone in a parking lot
G         Em               C               D
reminded me of you quit a lot
G               Em                        C                                 G
sat there in my truck and watched them walk on by
G               Em                       D                    G
after all these years it still can make cry

chorus
C                     D                      G         Em
through the miles and the memories
C                       D              G
i cant seem to let you go

and thought you never really said good bye
your never coming back i know

I often wonder how you've been
do you ever think of me now and then
I never hear from you , and you dont come to town
but still think of you even though your not around


no faded pictures will there be
no time for birthdays no time for you and me
no fond fare wells      sincere apologies
just an empty hole full bitter memories

rolled down my window threw my hat down on the seat
and let the wind blow voices from the street
they try to tell me everything will be all right
and in the morning maybe we will see the light

ok so I use the earthwoods on my takamini I keep at work and really like them hard to beat for the price . oddly enough ive never put them on my Taylor guitars. I switch between the elixir and D'addario strings , thinking the next set will be the sonotones just for picks and giggles.

here are the words and chords to I could have wrote  song. I also did a another recording finger picking instead of using a pick, I think it sounds better well marginally better
https://soundcloud.com/mojo01/could-have-wrote-a-song-2

G                         E           C                G      D
I could write a song or I could write a book
it dosnt really matter I never get a second look
I might change my mind but not my point of view
I dont know why I am sitting here talking to you
it dot make no difference when the day is through
most of all these people well they aint got a clue

C                                 G          D                                G
about where their going about where they've been
about the world in general their living in


some folks say it will be all right
while others sit and worry and cry all night
me myself I just dont give a damn
to many things in this life we dont understand
so I grab my guitar and go along for the ride
tell my little stories round the country side

about where I'm going about where ive been
about the world he world in general and the shape its in


well its time for me to be moving along
nothing much is left here for my next song
so ill get my self on the very next boat
across the river Styx my soul will float
when I reach the other side and step out on that bank
I may drop down to my knees and I may give thanks


maybe ill have questions about where ive been
about the world in general and the shape its in

I my self have not been around much, so guilty as charged. I some times write entire post then delete them before I post because I remember the best advice I ever got. better to be thought a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt. and like Doug said my intrest comes and goes.

Well that's a mighty fine gadget I`d say
Take it anywhere , any day
No big set up
I hear a few hiccups
As you settle down and play

First few songs and strums
Going really well , using your thumb
The keg getting lighter
You sound a bit brighter

You got a monster rock and roller
Now you just gotta holler
With mic, amp and guitar
You strut your stuff, your a star
You got ya mojo on

Songs are getting longer
Words getting slower
Keg half empty
Legs wobble plenty
But that rock and roller is steady
It's all set up and ready

Last couple of songs now
This gadget has it all
You emptied the keg completely
head feels like lead
Think it's time now for bed
Go rest your head
And dream of your rock and roller


Jan good one , cracked me up
did I mention this thing has a bottle opener on it to????
