[Verse 1]
A
Woke up this morning
D
Feeling down and low
E
Brewed a pot of coffee
A
Got nowhere to go
A
I got a call that topped it off
D
That Hag had passed away
E
I thought he'd live forever
A
What more can I say?
[Chorus:]
D
Feelin' Haggard
A
I kicked those swingin' doors
E
Feelin' Haggard
A
I'm a branded man, for sure
D
Feelin' Haggard
A
Tonight, bottle let me down
E
Feelin' Haggard
A
Since Haggard ain't around

The Okie from Muskogee
D
Was more than just a star
E
He lived his words, his music
A
Rang from concert halls and bars
A
Lefty, Bob and Jimmy
D
Lived in his country soul
E
His songs we'll sing forever
A
Never to grow old
