[Chorus 2] And his coat is torn and frayed Its seen much better days Just as long as the guitar plays Let it steal your heart away Steal your heart away [Outro] Well his coat is torn and frayed Its seen much better days Just as long as the guitar plays Just as long as the guitar plays Just as long as the guitar plays Just as long as the guitar plays
