Slaid Cleaves - Horshoe Lounge Chords

G
Ricky got the quarters for the table and broke
        C
While I pulled hard on the sorrow and smoke
G
Raising up my bottle I looked for a chance
       C
As you set your glass down on the bar with a glance at me


Chorus 1
D           C         G
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
D                C    G
Shuffleboard and neon light
D           C         G
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
D              C         G
Cigarettes and whiskey tonight

G
Ricky said 'She's out of your league, let her go'
     C
As I watched you pick your partner on that old dance floor
G
I know it didn't work out the first time we tried
    C
But I'd do anything to have you by my side again

Chorus 2:
D           C         G
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
D                    C      G
Peel the label off a Miller Lite
D           C         G
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
D                             C     G
I sit here thinking 'bout you every night




Bridge:
C                    G
Were you the one who faltered
    D             G
Was I the one who strayed
      C           G                   D
Maybe God left us out of the plans he made

G
So here's to missed beginnings and things that never start
    C
For these are the ghosts that run around in my heart
G
When I see that where I'm going isn't where I want to be
          C
I get the urge to look you up see if you would come and meet me

Chorus 3:
D           C         G
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
D                   C     G
Hey, buddy have you got a light
D           C         G
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
D                 C  G
One more and I'll be alright

Repeat Chorus 2 and then instrumental over chorus chords

G
Ricky got the quarters for the table and broke
                      C
(Sing slowly) While I pulled hard on the sorrow and smoke
