intro A A+5 Bm E
A A+5
verse1 Blame it all on my roots, I showed up in boots
Bm
And ruined your black tie affair
E E7
The last one to know, the last one to show
A
I was the last one you thought you'd see there
A A+5
And I saw the surprise and the fear in his eyes
Bm Dm
When I took his glass of champagne
E E7
I toasted you, said honey we may be through
E
But you'll never hear me complain
A
chorus Coz I got friends in low places
A Bm
Where the whiskey drowns and the beer chases my blues away
E
And I'll be OK
A
Now I'm not big on social graces
A7
Think I'll slip on down to the oasis
Bm E A
So I've got friends in low places
turnaround A / / / Bm E A
verse2 Well I guess I was wrong, I just don't belong
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
I'll be as high as that ivory tower
That you're livin' in
chorus (repeat till you get blue in the face)
