High On A Hilltop
Recorded by Merle Haggard 
Written by Tommy Collins   
Intro:

 C                      F           C
 High on a hilltop over looking the city
                     G7             C   G7
I can see the bright lights as they gleam 
        C                       F          C
And somewhere you're dancing in some dingy barroom
                                  G7               C
And the lure of the gayness takes the place of our dream
 F                                   C
 High on a hilltop my heart cries oh Lord
                              G7
Forgive her she knows not the way
     C                      F              C
And give me the power to believe that someday
                  G7             C
High on a hilltop together we'll pray

                              F       C
I can vision a rounder with a line so smooth
                 G7         C  G7
And a promise of riches for you
        C                               F          C
But you see not the danger cause you're silly with booze
                                     G7        C
And from high on a hilltop I see the devil win you

Repeat #2
