Lonely At The Top

INTRO: A  E  A

      A
I was pourin' out my troubles
      D
To a stranger in the bar
      A
About the problems and the pressures
      E
On a country music star

     A
Half braggin', half complainin'
         D
bout the money and the fame
A
And just how lonely life can be
           E                A
When you've made yourself a name

CHORUS:
       D
I said would you like a drink
        A
He said thanks, I'll have a double

I've worked up a powerful thirst
                         E
just listening to all your troubles
    D
And while he makes that drink
     A
I'll smoke one if you got 'em

It might be lonely at the top,
           E            A
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,
          E            A     E  A
but its a bitch at the bottom
