  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.
