Under The Bridge

Recorded by Merle Haggard

Written by Merle Haggard/T.T.Lane

CAPO 1ST FRET: KEY:Eb PLAY:D

I lost my job in Saginaw

Working on the railroad

After twenty years

They just put me on the side

Now I'm hungry in the street

With no place to hang my hat

And nothin' but an empty dream to ride

But,

:

Under the bridge

I can make believe I'm living in a castle

Under the bridge, my baby and me

And I can pretend that I'm a king

And this is my kingdom

Under the bridge, making beleive

Hey, the doors are always open

To any old weary traveller

And you'll find some great grub

Feedin' here below

Any old bridge can be a palace

Call it what you wan't to

It's a place to be when you got no place to go
