Better Off When I Was Hungry by Merle Haggard
Better Off When I Was Hungry
(No Capo)
[Intro]x4
A
A D A
I read they're havin' rain in Cali- fornia
D A E
And Lord, I hope that you're not gettin' wet
A D A D
That's the only way on earth I have for knowin' how you're doin'
A D A
When you left you said you call but you ain't yet
[Chorus]
A D A
And I think I was better off when I was hungry
D A E
And fightin' off the wolfs from our front door
A D A D
But I wrote this song and it came on strong and left you once too often
A D A
Now I think I was better off when I was hungry
[Solo]
A D A A A E A A
A D A
My guitar brought us here to Bonmat Texas
D A E
And I bought you every- thing your eyes could see
A D A D
But the mansion couldn't hold you could no- body's arms to warm you
A D A
I guess I gave you everything but me
[Chorus]
A D A
And I think I was better off when I was hungry
D A E
And fightin' off the wolfs from our front door
A D A D
But I wrote this song and it came on strong and left you once too often
A D A
Now I think I was better off when I was hungry
[Outro]
