Merle Haggard - Anyone Ought To Know
 A                                 D                      A
Sittin in a road side tavern the only cowboy seated here alone
                                     E                           A
Every night a lonely lady wants to tell me all about her broken home
                                            D                             A
It's like they can see inside my mind they act as if they know I'll understand
                                                E                                   A
I guess they know it when the hear my name and feel it when they touch my tremblin hand
                             D
Ahhh but if anyone ought to know
                       A
The loneliness of a rolling stone
               E
It ought to be me
                    A
I've always been alone
                    D
If anyone ought to know
                              A
About things like hurt and misery
               E
It ought to be me
 Bm                                 A
Lord in heaven knows it ought to be me
                     D
If anyone ought to know
                     A
The loneliness of a rolling stone
               E
It ought to be me
                           A
That's the reason I'm all alone
                    D
If anyone ought to know
                             A
About things like hurt and misery
               E
It ought to be me
Bm                                  A
Lord in heaven knows it ought to be me
