Now your standards change with poverty

Certain things become luxuries

So drive yourself down to the pawn shop

There's nothing to cry about
Encouraging resilience and avoiding unnecessary distress.
There are thousands of guitars all over the world

So shake off that sorrow, shame and self-pity
Encouraging the listener to overcome negative emotions.
Your '69 SG was never a necessity

Will always be there to remind you of what will always

Thousands of guitars all over the world, millions even
Reiterating the prevalence of guitars globally.
All over the world, stop holding on
Advising to let go and move on from attachments.
The rest have all been sold, give her a kiss goodbye
Noting the sale of most guitars, suggesting a farewell.
Then just let her go, don't you know that they never really die

There's no graveyard or heaven in the sky
Rejecting traditional notions of afterlife for guitars.
There'll be one for you when you can

Thousands of guitars hold on to your soul
