(verse)
Bb
Brady was a baseball star
    Dm                                 Gm           Eb
Til he struck out and took his car and drove away, mmmm
Bb
Sissy lost her little boy
Dm                          Gm           Eb
Hitch-hiked up to Illinois, so they say

(verse)
Cm7
Then it rained so hard that Mary tried
   Gm
To take her life with suicide
    Cm7                      F
And disappear just like the thunder
    Cm7
You ask around and no-one knows
Gm7
Where they went or what they do
F
But you wonder, I know you wonder

(chorus)
              Bb
Where do they go?
          D
They come here
   Eb                        Ebm
To drown in their sorrow and cry in their beer
           Bb           D
They're in need of a mindbender
         Eb
I'm a bartender
                  C7
At the end of the day
                Bb    F
I'm all they've got
F           Bb
Hope on the rocks

(verse)
Bb
Charlie's wife filed for divorce
    Dm                                          Gm               Eb
And Charlie bought a quarter horse and now he's ridin' fences,  mmmmm
Bb
Upside down and couldn't pay
     Dm
They hauled Sue's mobile home away
       Gm                     Eb
And we ain't seen her since

(verse)
Cm7
Larry's long time fiance'
    Gm
Got kicked out of the P.T.A.
    Cm7                           F
And moved her kids back east with someone else
Cm7
All and the ones you used to know
      Gm7
Don't drop in or say hello
        Cm7
But you ask yourself
F
I know you ask yourself



(chorus)
              Bb
Where do they go?
          D
They come here
   Eb                        Ebm
To drown in their sorrow and cry in their beer
           Bb           D
They're in need of a mindbender
         Eb
I'm a bartender
                  C7
At the end of the day
                Bb    F
I'm all they've got
F           Bb
Hope on the rocks

To drown in their sorrow and cry in their beer

They're in need of a mindbender
         Eb
I'm a bartender
                  C7
At the end of the day
                Bb    F
I'm all they've got
F           Bb     Bb D Eb C7
Hope on the rocks
