Chord A
You strummed the strings to test
and showed where to put the fingers
You created the chords
and they became food to my ears
Chord E
My turn to hug the guitar
I placed my fingers and strummed
But I couldn’t make the tune
So you grasped my hands
and helped me press the strings
We strummed together
Chord F#m
I gave up
I would never be gifted –
like you
Looking at my fingers,
didn’t you just pity them?
It’s my dream
to befriend the instrument
But it seemed I wasn’t liked
Chord D
You lifted my chin up
and said, “Be patient.”
The smile you showed fueled
my crying and hopeless fingers
I began to strum again
We began to strum again
Love perfected the song.
Please tell me what you think

One does not have to be 'gifted,' it comes sometimes from dilligence and persistence. Those are two things you have.
