Lyrics
Write a Country Song By Hollier/Dasch (C) I saw him sitting at the bar Couldn't miss his silver hair So I sat down there beside him In the only vacant chair He was sipping whisky on the rocks So I bought another round He said I don't recall you face I said I'm new in town I've come to write some country songs But don't know where to start I'd think it should be easy Wouldn't need to be too smart Right then he looked me in the eye With a look that could have killed He said you've got a lot to learn And his words they haunt me still You need at least one bad divorce Three chords and the truth I bet you don't know what it's like To be alone and blue You've got to know how bad it feels When someone's done you wrong Have heartaches by the number To write a country song He told me it takes more than words And a few chords on guitar If you want the world to listen It's gotta come right from the your heart He said don't be in a hurry If it's songs you want to write Go round the block a time or two And take and old man's good advice You need at least one bad divorce Three chords and the truth I bet you don't know what it's like To be alone and blue You've got to know how bad it feels When someone's done you wrong Have heartaches by the number To write a country song
