Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][A][D][G][C]

[Verse 1]
Low [C]down leaving sun
Done, did everything that needs [F]done
Woe is me, [C]why can't I [A]see?
I'd [D]best be leaving well enough a[G]lone
Them [C]neon light nights,
couldn't stay out of fights
[C]Keep a-haunting me in [F]memories
Well there's one in every crowd
for [C]crying out [A]loud
[D]Why was it always turning [G]out to be me?

[Verse 2]
[C]Where does it go?
The good Lord only knows
[C]Seems like it was just the other [F]day
I was down at Green Gables,
[C]hawking them [A]tables
And [D]generally blowing
all my [G]hard-earned pay

[Chorus 1]
Pi[C]ano rolled blues,
danced holes in my shoes
There [C]weren't another other way to [F]be
For lovable losers, [C]no account [A]boozers
And [D]honky tonk [G]heroes like

[Interlude 1]
[C](me)[C][C][C]

[Verse 3]
[C]Where does it go?
The good Lord only knows
[C]Seems like it was just the other [F]day
I was down at Green Gables,
[C]hawking them tab[A]les
And [D]generally blowing
all my [G]hard-earned pay

[Chorus 2]
Pi[C]ano rolled blues,
danced holes in my shoes
There [C]weren't another other way to [F]be
For lovable [C]losers, no [A]account boozers
And [D]honky tonk [G]heroes [C]like

[Solo 1]
[C][C][C][F]
[F][C][A][D][G]
[C][C][C][F]
[F][C][A][D][G][C]

[Verse 4]
[C]Where do we go?
The good Lord only knows
And [C]seemed like it was just the other [F]day
I was down at Green Gables,
[C]hawking them tab[A]les
And [D]generally blowing
all [G]my hard-earned pay

[Chorus 3]
Pi[C]ano rolled blues,
danced holes in my shoes
There [C]weren't another other way to [F]be
For them lovable losers,
[C]no account boo[A]zers
And [D]honky tonk [G]heroes like

[Outro 1]
[C](me)[C][C][C]
