Verse 1:
 D                           D7
Low down leaving sun, I've done
                           G
Did everything that needs done
            D             B7
Woe is me, why can't I see
       E7                       A7
I best be leaving well enough alone
       D                                     D7
Them neon light nights, couldn't stay out of fights
                            G
Them keep a-haunting me in memories
                                  D7            B7
There is one in every crowd, for crying out loud
        E7                A7
Why was it always turning out be me


Chorus:
 D                                     D7
Where does it go, the good Lord only knows
                                     G
It seems like it was just the other day
                              D7               B7
I was down at Green Gables, hawking them tables
       E7                                 A7
And generally blowing all my hard earned pay
 D                                      D7
Piano roll blues, danced holes in my shoes
                                   G
There weren't another other way to be
                        D       D7       B7
For loveable losers, no account boozers
      E7       A7          D
And honky tonk heroes like me

Chorus 2:
 D                                     D7
Where does it go, the good Lord only knows

It seems like it was just the other day
                              D7               B7
I was down at Green Gables, hawking them tables
       E7                                 A7
And generally blowing all my hard earned pay
 D                                      D7
Piano roll blues, danced holes in my shoes
                                   G
There weren't another other way to be
                        D       D7       B7
For loveable losers, no account boozers
      E7       A7          D7
And honky tonk heroes like me

      E7       A7          D
And honky tonk heroes like me
