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,
[CHORUS]:
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
[INSTRUMENTAL]
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
[CHORUS]
