Piano Intro then . . .
Intro C G D G 2X
C G
Where in hell did you go?
D C G
You left us all alone I wasn't even eighteen.
D
You never turned around
C G
Like some kid out on the run
D C G
you headed for the fun down in Biloxi
D
and the Gulf of Mexico
Chorus
C G
Where I guess the girls they're pretty
C G
and nobody says it's late
D C
and you can stay out all night long and never have hell to pay
G
down in Biloxi
D
even when you're forty-one
C D
just forget your problems
G
down in Biloxi
C G
And you only came around
D C G
to take a rest and come down from Biloxi
D
but you were not the same
C G
pretending that you cared
D C G
pretending you were there and not in Biloxi
D
and the Gulf of Mexico
Chorus
Solo
C G
Did you really think you'd find
D C G
more than you left behind back home in Houston?
D
we all felt the loss
C G
I don't mean to bring you down
D C G
but I wonder what you found there in Biloxi
D
tell me, was it worth the cost?
C G
Well I hope the girls were pretty
C G
and nobody said it was late
D C
and I hope you stayed out all night long and never had hell to pay
G
down in Biloxi
D
when you were forty-one
C D
You forgot your problems
G
down in Biloxi.
Solo until end
This sounds right to me.
