As recorded by Merle Haggard (From the 2007 Album THE BLUEGRASS SESSIONS) [Intro] G C G F C G D G [Verse 1]
G                             C
I learned how to live with my darling

G                    C
God took my darling away

C
Down through the years

Bm7                  C
He took all my peers

                 D
Left me here and pray
[Verse 2]
         G                  C
And it's hard to handle the loneliness

G                     C
Harder to maintain my health

                         G
Till he gives me my call

G
The hardest of all

        D                       G
Will be learning to live with myself
[Chorus]
C                       Bm
Learning to live with myself

C                          D
A lesson that's so hard to learn

C                     Bm7
Even locked down in a prison

         C                            D
There's a cellmate with friendship to earn
[Verse 3]
     G                        C
It's harder to face up to the mirror

G                           C
Leave all the habits on the shelf

C
Until he gives me my call

G
The hardest of all

       D                        G
Will be learning to live with myself
[Guitar Solo] G C G C G D G [Chorus]
C                       Bm
Learning to live with myself

C                          D
A lesson that's so hard to learn

C                     Bm
Even locked down in a prison

         C                            D
There's a cellmate with friendship to earn
[Verse 4]
     G                        C
It's harder to face up to the mirror

Leave all the habits on the shelf

C
Until he gives me my call

G
The hardest of all

       D                        G
Will be learning to live with myself
[Outro] G C G C G D G
