Capo: 1st fret
[Verse 1]
D D7
I was pourin' out my troubles
G
To a stranger in the bar
D
'Bout the problems and the pressures
A
On a country music star
D D7
Half braggin', half complainin'
G
'Bout the money and the fame
D
And just how lonely life can be
A D
When you've made yourself a name
[Chorus]
G
I said, "Would you like a drink?"
D
He said, "Thanks, I'll have a double
I've worked up a powerful thirst
A
Just listenin' to all your troubles"
G
"And while he makes that drink
D
I'll smoke one if you got 'em
It might be lonely at the top
A D D7
But it's a bitch at the bottom"
G D A
[Verse 2]
D D7
I left a hundred on the table
G
And didn't wait around for change
D
With my load a little lighter
A
And my thinkin' rearranged
D D7
That stranger made me realize
G
How thankful I should be
D
And if I forget, I hope those words
A D D7
He said, come back to me
[Chorus]
G
I said, "Would you like a drink?"
D
He said, "Thanks, I'll have a double
I've worked up a powerful thirst
A
Just listenin' to all your troubles"
G
"And while he makes that drink
D
I'll smoke one if you got 'em
It might be lonely at the top
A D
But it's a bitch at the bottom"
D
It might be lonely at the top
A D
But it's a bitch at the bottom
G D
