Honky Tonk Heroes Tabs

(ver. 1)
Billy Joe Shaver

I play it Capo 1, but the original is Capo 2. It sounds good any way you play it.

C                                                          E7             
Low down leaving sun, I've done did everything that needs done
 E7          C                A7               D            G
Woe is me, why can't I see, I best be leaving well enough alone
     C                                         E7            
Them neon light nights, couldn't stay out of fights
                C           A7
Keep a-haunting me and memories
        E7                      C            A7
There is one in every crowd, for crying out loud                        
D                                G
Why was it always turning out be me


Chorus: 
C 
Where does it go, the good Lord only knows
    E7                  C             A7
It seems like it was just the other day
       E7                      C           A7
I was down at Green Gables, hawking them tables
      D                G                  C
And generally blowing all my hard earned pay
C          
Piano rolled blues, I danced holes in my boots
       E7               C           A7
There weren't another other way to be
     E7                     C            D 
For loveable losers, and no account boozers
     D          G           C 
And honky tonk heroes like me


Solo


 C            
Piano rolled blues, I danced holes in my boots
      E7              C             A7
There weren't another other way to be
     E7                     C          A7
For loveable losers, and no account boozers
    D          G          C
And honky tonk heroes like me
