Honky Tonk Heroes  Waylon Jennings                        # 08 - 6

 

        D

Low down leaving sun, I've done

                                          G

Did everything that needs done

                   D             Bm

Woe is me,why can't i see

   E7                                         A   

I best be leaving well enough alone

 

          D                                        

Them neon black nights,couldn't stay out of fights

                                                 G

Them keep a-huanting me memories

                                                    D             Bm

There is one in every crowd,for crying out loud

E7                                      A

Why was it always turning out be me

 

 

Chorus

 

D

Where does it go,the good Lord only knows

                                                     G

It seems like it was just the other day

                                               D                    Bm

I was down at Green Gables,hawking them tables

        E7                                  A 

And generally blowing all my hard earned pay

 

   D                             

Piano rolled blues,danced holes in my shoes

                                                         G

There weren't another other way to be

                                D                  Bm     

For loveable losers,no luck can't boozers

         E7             A                D

And honky tonk heroes like me

 

Chorus.
