Nice Acoustic Guitar Playing – “Oh Alcohol” by David Lydon
Nice acoustic guitar playing – “Oh Alcohol” by David Lydon – davidlydon.com Words and music copyright David Lydon 2007. I wrote this about my experiences with alcohol and addiction. The song came after a lot of years of struggle and confusion about the situation and after having recently gotten free of it. I was very grateful at the time as alcohol had dominated a lot of my life for some time. A friend of mine took this video at my house. The guitar was borrowed from a guy I knew, but I wasn’t able to say goodbye to it so I bought it from him. Its made by Godin I think. The studio version of this song can be found my debut album, “Hello Ugly Hello Friend.” Lyrics I have glimpsed happiness since a child And its here Right in front of my eyes Help me stand and remember the fall Oh Alcohol You didn’t love me at all Love me at all… I turned to you When I couldn’t face myself And you worked for me You turned me into someone else I thought it was myself I thought the rain fell And the sun shone Because of you.. But then you caused My trouble and my pain My sorrow and my tears And locked me in a cage Oh Alcohol.. You didn’t love me at all Love me at all… I have glimpsed happiness since a child And its here Right in front of my eyes Help me stand and remember the fall Oh Alcohol You didn’t love me at all Love me at all…
