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
