Stairway to the Bottom
K. Kristofferson


INTRO: C  G  C  F  C   G

         C
Well you started again with a wife of a friend
                                      G
On another night you hope you won't recall
G
And the wine that you're drinkin' doesn't keep you from thinkin'
                                         C
Of the bitter taste that lingers in your soul
C                                                              
As you listen to your lies, once again you realize
                        C7              F
That she doesn't mean a thing to you at all
                                           C
And I watch you climb that stairway to the bottom
      G                             C
Every evenin' in that mirror on the wall


(KEY CHANGE TO D)

         D
You take pride in decievin' one who tried hard believin' in you
                            A
Even after all the lies you told
A
But each lie that you've spoken and each vow that you've broken
                                     D
Was a new nail in the coffin of your soul
D
If you think someone's cryin' for the love that is dyin'
                          D7                 G
With the trust that you betray each time you fall
                                        D
Look around you on that stairway to the bottom
         A                               D     D7
No one's watchin' but that mirror on the wall

      G                                 D
Look around you on that stairway to the bottom
         A                               D       
No one's watchin' but that mirror on the wall
