INTRO: A E A

I was ^Apourin' out my troubles To a s^Dtranger in the bar About ^Athe problems and the pressures On a c^Eountry music star

Half ^Abraggin', half complainin' bout the ^Dmoney and the fame ^AAnd just how lonely life can be When you've^E made yourself a ^Aname

CHORUS:

I said ^Dwould you like a drink He said ^Athanks, I'll have a double

I've worked up a powerful thirst

just listening to all you^Er troubles And ^Dwhile he makes that drink I'll ^Asmoke one if you got 'em

It might be lonely at the top,

but its a b^Eitch at the b^Aottom INTRO

I left a hundred on the table and didn't wait around for change with my load a little lighter and my thinking rearranged That stranger made me realize how thankful I should be And if I forget I hope those words he said I hope come back to me CHORUS I said would you like a drink He said thanks, I'll have a double I've worked up a powerful thirst just listening to all your troubles And while he makes that drink I'll smoke one if you got 'em It might be lonely at the top, but its a bitch at the bottom It might be lonely at the top,

but its a ^Ebitch at the ^Abottom^E ^A
