         A                  A7/Bb (x12020)
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                        A7/Bb
And I saw the surprise and the fear in his eyes
     Bm                      Dm
When I took his glass of champagne
    E
And I toasted you, said, "Honey, we may be through,
                            E7
But you'll never hear me complain."

       A
'Cause I've got friends in low places
                                                Bm
Where the whiskey drowns and the beer chases my blues away
         E
And I'll be okay
A
I'm not big on social graces, think I'll slip on down to the oasis
    Bm              E       A
Oh, I've got friends in low places

Guitar Solo

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

'Cause I've got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns and the beer chases my blues away
And I'll be okay
I'm not big on social graces, think I'll slip on down to the oasis
Oh, I've got friends in low places
I've got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns and the beer chases my blues away
But I'll be okay
I'm not big on social graces, think I'll slip on down to the oasis
Oh, I've got friends in low places
I've got friends in low places
Where the whiskey drowns and the beer chases my blues away
And I'll be okay
I'm not big on social graces, think I'll slip on down to the oasis
Oh, I've got friends in low places
