INTRO: A5 E5 A5 A5 I was pourin' out my troubles D5 To a stranger in the bar A5 About the problems and the pressures E5 On a country music star A5 Half braggin', half complainin' D5 bout the money and the fame A5 And just how lonely life can be E5 A5 When you've made yourself a name CHORUS: D5 I said would you like a drink A5 He said thanks, I'll have a double I've worked up a powerful thirst E5 just listening to all your troubles D5 And while he makes that drink A5 I'll smoke one if you got 'em It might be lonely at the top, E5 A5 but its a bitch at the bottom 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, E5 A5 E5 A5 but its a bitch at the bottom
