Verse 1:
D
Low down leaving sun,i've done
G
Did everything that needs done
D B7
Woe is me,why can't i see
E7 A
I best be leaving well enough alone
D
Them neon black nights,couldn't stay out of fights
G
Them keep a-huanting me memories
D B7
There is one in every crowd,for crying out loud
E7 A
Why was it always turning out be me
Chorus:
D
Where does it go,the good Lord only knows
G
It seems like it was just the other day
D B7
I was down at Green Gables,hawking them tables
E7 A
And generally blowing all my hard earned pay
D
Piano rolled blues,danced holes in my shoes
G
There weren't another other way to be
D B7
For loveable losers,no luck can't boozers
E7 A
And honky tonk heroes like me
Chorus.
