Written by Johnny Christopher & Bobby Wood Recorded by Merle Haggard Album: 5:01 Blues (No Capo) Rubato
G              F#m    Em                       D
Got a call to night, sayin' we could still be friends

       Em               D/F# G          G# A
What a way to say good bye, what a way to end

     G               F#m     Em          D
They say the darkest hour is just before dawn

   Bm                            Em                  A
So I'll just hold my head up and try to sing my song
[Chorus]
              D                            F#
A better love next time, just don't let me lose my mind

Am    D        G           Em               A    Bm A/C#
All I need's a real friend to pick me up a gain

  A                 D                            F#
I gotta shake these memories, if there's another chance for me

        Am      D     G           D/F#            Em
I'll be lookin' for a sign, won't someone help me find

  A           D           D D/E D/F# A/D
A better love next time  

Bm                               F#m
I could sit around and hurt for ever over you

    C                                G    G/F# G/E G/D
But in my heart I know you're really gone

Bm                             F#m
There must be a reason for the pain I'm goin' through

C                              G    G/F# G/E G/D A
Telling me I'm not where I be long  
[Chorus]
              D                            F#
A better love next time, just don't let me lose my mind

Am    D        G           Em               A    Bm A/C#
All I need's a real friend to pick me up a gain

  A                 D                            F#
I gotta shake these memories, if there's another chance for me

        Am      D     G           D/F#            Em
I'll be lookin' for a sign, won't someone help me find

  A           D
A better love next time

A       D            G       F#m            Em
Just as soon as I am strong, I'll be movin' on

     A           D           C Bm G F#m Em A D
To a better love next time
