Lonely At the Top
Cook/Whitley/Raines
INTRO: A E A
A D
I was pourin' out my troubles to a stranger in a bar
A E
About the problems and the pressures on a country music star
A D
Half braggin', half complainin', 'bout the money and the fame
A E A
Just how lonely life can be when you've made yourself a name
CHORUS:
D A
I said would you like a drink, he said thanks, I'll have a double
E
I've worked up a powerful thirst just listenin' to all your troubles
D A
And while he makes that drink, I'll smoke one if you got 'em
E A
It might be lonely at the top but it's a b***h 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 thinkin' rearranged
That stranger made me realize how thankful I should be
And if I forget I hope those words he said come back to me
CHORUS
E A E A
It might be lonely at the but it's a b***h at the bottom
