Poets & Old Souls

[Verse 1]
I can string some words together, make 'em pretty and make 'em rhyme
There's some hard miles on my heart chasin' this crazy dream of mine
Left everyone I love, hurt everyone I know
It's a lonely road for poets and old souls

[Chorus]
You take your pain, you write it down
You sing your songs, word slowly gets around
And there's some that think it's easy, I'm here to tell you it just ain't so
It's a lonely road for poets and old souls

[Verse 2]
Well, this old guitar's seen me at my whiskey bottom worst
And lookin' back on it's a wonder I didn't wind up in a hеarse
You see the part of me that shinеs, but there's a lot that you don't know
It's a lonely road for poets and old souls

[Chorus]
You take your pain, you write it down
You sing your songs, word slowly gets around
Well, there's some that think it's easy, I'm here to tell you it just ain't so
It's a lonely road for poets and old souls

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
You take your pain, you write it down
Been ten years, word's finally gettin' 'round
There's some that think it's easy, I'm here to tell you it just ain't so
It's a lonely road for poets and old souls

[Outro]
If you come in thinkin' it's easy, I'm here to tell you it just ain't so
It's a lonely road for poets and old souls
