Verse

B
Brady was a baseball star
    D#m                                G#m        E
Til he struck cut and took his car and drove away mmmmmm
B
Sissy lost her little boy
D#m                         G#m       
Hitch hiked up to Illinois  so they say

Verse

        E                                
Then it rained so hard that Mary tried
   B
To take her life with suicide
    E                       F#
And disappear just like the thunder
    E
You ask around and no one knows
B
Where they went or what they do
        F#                  F#7
But you wonder   I know you wonder

Chorus

              B
Where do they go
          D#
They come here
   E                         Em
To drown in their sorrow and cry in their beer
           B             D#
They're in need of a mindbender
         E
I'm a bartender
                  C#7
At the end of the day
                B   F#
I'm all they've got
              B
Hope on the rocks
