Friends in Low Places

VERSE 1:

4 -4 5 5 5 5 -4 4
Blame it all on my r-oo-ts
5 5 -5 5 6
I showed up in boots
-4 -4 -4 -4 -4 5 -4 -3
And ruined your black tie af-fair
-4 -4 -4 -4 -4
The last one to know
-4 -4 -4 -4 -5
The last one to show
-5 -5 -5 -5 5
I was the last one
5 5 -5 5 4
You thought you’d see there
4 -4 5 5 5 5
And I saw the sur-prise
5 5 5 -5 5 6
And the fear in his eyes
-4 -4 -4 -4 -4 5 -4 -5
When I took his glass of cham-pagne
3 3 3 3 -4
And I toas-ted you
-4 -4 -4 -4 5 -4 -5
Said, hon-ey, we may be through
-4 -4 -4 -4 -4 5 -4 -5
But you’ll nev-er hear me com-plain

CHORUS:

6 6 -5 5 3 1 3 -3
‘Cause I’ve got friends in low pla-ces
4 -4 5 -4 4
Where the whis-key drowns
4 -3 3 -4 4 -3 -3 -3 -3 -4
And the beer chas-es my b-lues a-way
-3 -3 -3 -3 -4
And I’ll be ok-ay
6 -5 5 3 1 1 3 -3
I’m not big on soc-ial grac-es
4 -4 5 -4 4 4 4 6 5 4
Think I’ll slip on down to the o-as-is
4 -4 -4 -4 4 4 -4 5 -5 5 4
Oh, I’ve got fri-ends in l-o–w pl-aces

VERSE 2:
Well, I guess I was wrong
I just don’t belong
But then, I’ve been there before
Everything’s all right
I’ll just say goodnight
And I’ll show myself to the door
Hey, I didn’t mean
To cause a big scene
Just give me an hour and then
Well, I’ll be as high
As that ivory tower
That you’re livin’ in

REPEAT CHORUS (2 TIMES)
