tim mcgraw - poet's resumé lyrics
[verse 1]
washin’ dishes at a no_name diner
worked his way up to line cook on the weekdays
but his daydream is burnin’, his dish towel her turned in
another dead_end job on a poet’s resumé
[verse 2]
so, he followed a lover out west
where the sun sets on pacific palisades
when she slept with an old boyfriend
it tore him up to no end, put all that pain in a poet’s resumé
[chorus]
when you work in heartache you still earn those callouses
words on a napkin in dead languages
everybody loves him but no onе ever stays
another whiskеy to unwind, another less_than_perfect rhyme
another wasted line on a poet’s resumé
[verse 3]
fine line between being free and being lonely
it’s blood from a stone and stoned on percocet
he don’t believe in god but he’s prayin’
he’ll find something worth sayin’
in a new way no one’s ever heard it said
[chorus]
when you work in heartache you still earn those callouses
words on a napkin in dead languages
everybody loves him but no one ever stays
another whiskey to unwind, another less_than_perfect rhyme
another wasted line on a poet’s resumé
[bridge]
and he knows it’s in his blood
his blood is on the page and the page will always turn
that’s how it goes when you’re young
when the only thing you’re scared of is runnin’ out of words
[chorus]
when you work in heartache you still earn those callouses
words on a napkin in dead languages
everybody loves him but no one ever stays
another whiskey to unwind, another less_than_perfect rhyme
another wasted line on a poet’s resumé
