乡村民谣，一如既往地带有强烈的叙事性，一把吉他便讲述了一段人生，画面随着旋律，不疾不徐地飘过脑海，心情也沉浸在其中，令听者徒生感慨。

假如今天就将离世，你将做些什么？你还有什么愿望？这样的设问似乎已经不只听过一次，但答案注定会千差万别。歌手说，只要一把吉他在手，身在家中，便是幸福的归宿。对，那样的告别，一定是温暖的。

如果是我，希望在爱人的怀抱中，平静而不悲伤，只需微风中送来《如歌的行板》，我用微笑诉说所有的幸福与知足。

【歌词】

Early morning in a motel room,
Sunshine trying to creep on through.
Lost Sleep but I found a tune,
Stuck inside my head.
Cigarettes, a tank of gas,
Headed off to nowhere fast,
Gotta find a way to make this feeling last.

Cause I believe that I,
Was born with a song inside of me.
Never question why,
I just keep on singing that melody.
And as time goes by,
Oh its funny how time can make you realize,
We're running out of it.

On the day that I die,
I wanna to say that I,
Was a man who really lived and never compromised.
I want to live out my days,
Until the very end,
I hope they find me in my home with my guitar in my hands.
I hope they find me in my home with my guitar in my hands.

A part of dawn to be ashamed of,
But good people are supposed to be up.
But I found peace with the path I took,
As I lay down my head.
Crossroads you gotta choose,
Which way could be win or lose.
But every morning my soul seems to sing on through.

Cause I believe that I,
Was born with a song inside of me.
Never question why,
I just keep on singing these melodies.
And as time goes by,
Its funny how time can make you realize,
We're running out of it.

On the day that I die,
I wanna to say that I,
Was a man who really lived and never compromised.
I want to live out my days,
Until the very end,
I hope they find me in my home with my guitar in my hands.
I hope they find me in my home with my guitar in my hands.

Woo a woooo
Woo a woooo
