|C % |Dbo7 % |
Blame it all on my roots, I showed up in boots, and
|Dm7 % |% % |
ruined your black-tie affair. The
|G % |% % |
last one to know, the last one to show, I was the
|C % |% % |
last one you thought you'd see there. And
|C % |Db07 % |
I saw the surprise, and the fear in his eyes when
|Dm7 % |% %|
I took his glass of champagne.
|G % |% % |
I toasted you, said "Honey, we may be through, but
|% % |% % |
you'll never hear me complain." 'Cause
<chorus>:
|C % |% % |
I've got friends in low places where the
|% % |% % |Dm7 % |% % |
whiskey drowns and the beer chases my blues away, and I'll
|G % |% % |C % |% % |
be okay. Yeah, I'm not big on social graces, think I'll
|% % |% % |Dm7 % |G % |C %|
slip on down to the o-asis, oh, I've got friends in low places.

|C % |Dbo7 % |
Well I guess I was wrong, I just don't belong, but
|Dm7 % |% % |
then, I've been there before. Every-

thing's alright, I'll just say goodnight, and I'll
|C % |% % |
show myself to the door. Hey
|C % |Dbo7 % |
I didn't mean to cause a big scene, just
|Dm7 % |% %|
Give me an hour and then
|G % |% % |
I'll be as high as that ivory tower
|% % |% % |
.. that you're livin' in. 'Cause
