Lonely at the Top Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][D][G]

[Verse 1]
I was [G]pourin' out my troubles
To [C]a stranger in the bar
About [G]the problems and the pressures
On a [D]country music star

[Verse 2]
Half [G]braggin', half complainin'
About [C]the money and the fame
And [G]just how lonely life can be
When [D]you've made yourself [G]a name

[Verse 3]
I said [C]would you like a drink
He said [G]thanks, I'll have a double
I've worked up a powerful thirst
Just listening to all [D]your troubles

[Verse 4]
And [C]while he makes that drink
[G]I'll smoke one if you got 'em
It might be lonely at the top,
But its [D]a bitch at the bot[G]tom

[Interlude 1]
[G][D][G]

[Verse 5]
I left a [G]hundred on the table
And didn't [C]wait around for change
With my [G]load a little lighter
And [D]my thinking rearranged

[Verse 6]
[G]That stranger made me realize
[C]How thankful I should be
And if [G]I forget I hope those words
[D]He said come back to me
[G]

[Verse 7]
I said [C]would you like a drink
He said [G]thanks, I'll have a double
I've worked up a powerful thirst
Just listening to all [D]your troubles

[Verse 8]
And [C]while he makes that drink
[G]I'll smoke one if you got 'em
It might be lonely at the top,
But its a [D]bitch at the bot[G]tom

[Verse 9]
It might [G]be lonely at the top,
But its [D]a bitch at the bott[G]om

[Outro 1]
[G]
