[Intro]
A F#7 B7 E7 A D A


[Verse 1]
A
Low down leaving sun
              A7               D
Done did everything that needs done
           A           F#7
Woe is me, why can't I see?
  B7                           E
I best be leaving well enough alone


[Verse 2]
     A
Them neon lighten nights, couldn't stay out of fights
     A7                      D
Them keep a-haunting me in memories
D
Well there is one in every crowd
    A          F#7
For crying out loud
B7                        E
Why was it always turning out be me


[Chorus]
A
Where does it go, the good Lord only knows
   A7                               D
It seems like it was just the other day
                            A            F#
I was down at Green Gables, hawking them tables
    B7                       E7
And generally blowing all my hard-earned pay
A
Piano rolled blues, danced holes in my shoes
      A7                           D
There weren't another other way to be
                     A          F#7
For loveable losers, lower camp boozers
    B7         E7          A
And honky tonk heroes like me


[Interlude]
A


[Chorus]
A
Where does it go, the good Lord only knows
                                    D7
It seems like it was just the other day
                            A            F#7
I was down at Green Gables, hawking them tables
    B7                       E7
And generally blowing all my hard earned pay
A
Piano rolled blues, danced holes in my shoes
                                   D
There weren't another other way to be
                        A          F#7
For loveable losers and lower camp boozers
    B7         E7          A
And honky tonk heroes like me

Where does it go, the good Lord only knows

It seems like it was just the other day
                            A            F#7
I was down at Green Gables, hawking them tables
    B7                       E7
And generally blowing all my hard earned pay

For loveable losers and lower camp boozers
