If Right Now Played Guitar

Words and Music by Todd Lerner

If these notes could talk to you, what would these notes say?
If these chords could speak to you, what would these chords say?

I am math, resolving numbers, I am melody
I am the beating heart of reason, relating all I see

Then if those words could paint for you, what image would they make?
And if that way took shape for you, what form would it take?

Upon a purple mountain of victory, stands tall a beautiful man
Against a bright blue sky of justice, he holds sunlight in his hand

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

So if right now played guitar for you, what would right now play?
If what is sang along to you, what feeling would that all make?
If right now played guitar for you, what would right now play?

Go
