Eric Church Bleed On Paper
[Verse 1]
May never be what you call a rock star
It's cool if I don't get there
I die just a sinner with a guitar
Johnny Cash middle finger in the air
Make a living on what's in the tip jar
Burn out like a neon buzz
I've been nothing but my old man's son
Or the best damn thing there ever was, but I
[Chorus]
Keep on singing what I know
Between a minor and a major
Keep pulling at the bittersweet
And if it ain't the latest flavor
Little bit of devil, little bit of savior
Whole lotta life cuttin' like a razor
With some blue ink, a blank page
And an old six string, I bleed on paper
[Verse 2]
Yeah, I met a man at the crossroad
Suit and tie, with a smile like gold
He tried making me a deal
Like I had me a for sale sign hangin' on my soul
Said all I had to do was change my tune
I could cash that check
But I don't like the feeling of a rattlesnake
Boot heel on my neck, so I
[Chorus]
Keep on singing what I know
Between a minor and a major
Keep pulling at the bittersweet
And if it ain't the latest flavor
Little bit of devil, little bit of savior
Whole lotta life cuttin' like a razor
With some blue ink, a blank page
And an old six string, I bleed on paper
[Bridge]
Pulling out my heart
Showing these scars
Yeah that's the part that heals me
Chasing one more song
That cuts to the bone
Even if it kills me
[Chorus]
But I keep on singing what I know
Between a minor and a major
I keep pulling at the bittersweet
Even if it ain't the latest flavor
Runnin' with the devil, riding with the savior
Whole lotta life cuttin' like a razor
With some blue ink, a blank page
And an old six string, I bleed on paper
[Outro]
I bleed on paper
Keep on keepin' on
I bleed on paper
Bleed on paper
