Chely Wright ~ Emma Jean's Guitar


(matraca berg/gary harrison/jeff hanna) (track 4 - time 3:49) I found it in a pawn shop in a ragged cardboard case With the guns and dusty watches it looked so out of place With a trailways baggage sticker yellow frayed and torn Destination nashville september '64 And you could tell by the fingerboard her painted nails were long She only needed three chords to play those good ole country songs And her name's etched in the finish like a fading battle scar And this 1950 gibson was emma jean's guitar I wonder if she played it in a small town talent show With her hair teased to perfection in a dress her mamma sewed And for a little inspiration she pasted on a star Here up on the head stock of emma jean's guitar And you could tell by the fingerboard her painted nails were long She only needed three chords to play those good ole country songs And they were played with tenderness they were played with heart And this 1950 gibson was emma jean's guitar I wouldn't even know her if i saw her face to face But there's a little bit of emma jean in every song i play She passed along these hopes and dreams cradled in my arms And i am just a guardian of emma jean's guitar You could tell by the fingerboard her painted nails were long She only needed three chords to play those good ole country songs And her name's etched in the finish like a fading battle scar And this 1950 gibson was emma jean's guitar This 1950 gibson was emma jean's guitar more free lyrics

(track 4 - time 3:49)

I found it in a pawn shop in a ragged cardboard case
With the guns and dusty watches it looked so out of place
With a trailways baggage sticker yellow frayed and torn
Destination nashville september '64

And you could tell by the fingerboard her painted nails were long
She only needed three chords to play those good ole country songs
And her name's etched in the finish like a fading battle scar
And this 1950 gibson was emma jean's guitar

I wonder if she played it in a small town talent show
With her hair teased to perfection in a dress her mamma sewed
And for a little inspiration she pasted on a star
Here up on the head stock of emma jean's guitar

And you could tell by the fingerboard her painted nails were long
She only needed three chords to play those good ole country songs
And they were played with tenderness they were played with heart
And this 1950 gibson was emma jean's guitar

I wouldn't even know her if i saw her face to face
But there's a little bit of emma jean in every song i play
She passed along these hopes and dreams cradled in my arms
And i am just a guardian of emma jean's guitar

You could tell by the fingerboard her painted nails were long
She only needed three chords to play those good ole country songs
And her name's etched in the finish like a fading battle scar
And this 1950 gibson was emma jean's guitar
This 1950 gibson was emma jean's guitar

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
