Bitch At The Bottom chords by Keith Whitley

Chords with lyrics

Verse 1:

E MajorE
I was pourin' out my troubles

   A augmentedA
To a stranger in a bar

     E MajorE
Of the problems and the pressures

   BB
On a country music star

E MajorE
Half braggin', half complainin'

     A augmentedA
'Bout the money and the fame

   E MajorE
And just how lonely lot can be

      BB        E MajorE
When you've made yourself a name

Chorus:

E MajorE    A augmentedA
I said, "Would you like a drink?"

      E MajorE
He said, "Thanks, I'll have a double

E MajorE
I worked up a powerful thirst

              BB
Just listenin' to all your troubles"

   A augmentedA
"And while he makes that drink

   E MajorE
I'll smoke one if you got it

E MajorE
It might be lonely at the top

      BB       E MajorE
But it's a bitch at the bottom"

Verse 2:

E MajorE
I left a hundred on the table

   A augmentedA
And didn't wait around for change

    E MajorE
But my load a little lighter

    BB
And my thinkin' rearranged

   E MajorE
That stranger made me realize

  A augmentedA
How thankful I should be

 E MajorE
And if I forget, I hope those words

 BB         E MajorE
He said come back to me

Chorus:

E MajorE    A augmentedA
I said, "Would you like a drink?"

      E MajorE
He said, "Thanks, I'll have a double

E MajorE
I worked up a powerful thirst

              BB
Just listenin' to all your troubles"

   A augmentedA
"And while he makes that drink

   E MajorE
I'll smoke one if you got it

E MajorE
It might be lonely at the top

      BB       E MajorE
But it's a bitch at the bottom"
