Subject: This Loneliness Is Eatin' Me Alive by Merle Haggard
This Loneliness Is Eatin' Me Alive
Intro
[E] [C#m] [F#m] [B7] [E] [A] [E] [B7]
There hasn't [E]been one bit of [E7]laughter in this [A]house in so
[C]long,
Just the [E]howling of the [C#m]wind asking [F#m]why.[B7]
And I [E]know this house ain't [E7]growing, but it seems [A]bigger since
you're [C]gone.
And this [E]loneliness[C#m] is [F#m]eating [B7]me [E]alive.[A] [E] [B7]
If there's [E]any forgiveness [E7]in you wrap it [A]up and come on
[C]home.
Hey I [E]may not change [C#m]completely, oh but I'll [F#m]try.[B7]
And [E]honey you'll have to [E7]hurry or there'll be no [A]reason to
come [C]home.
Cause this [E]loneliness[C#m] is [F#m]eating [B7]me [E]alive.[A] [E]
The bigger the [B7]house, the harder the [E]tear falls,
I found it [F#]out since you're [B7]goodbye.
And [E]honey you'll have to [E7]hurry or there'll be no [A]reason to
come [C]home.
Cause this [E]loneliness[C#m] is [F#m]eating [B7]me [E]alive.[E][D][C#m]
Yea, this [F#m]loneliness is [B7]eating me [E]alive.[A] [E]
