[Verse]
Blame it all [G]on my roots
I [G#dim7]showed up in boots
And [Am]ruined your black tie affair
The [D]last one to know
The [D7]last one to show
I was the [G]last one you thought you'd see there
And I [G]saw the surprise
And the [G#dim7]fear in his eyes
When [Am]I took his glass of cham[Cm]champagne
[D]I toasted you
Said honey [D7]we may be through
But [D]you'll never hear me
Comp[D7]Complain
[Chorus]
'Cause [G]I got friends in low places
Where the [G]whiskey drowns and the beer chases
My b[Am]blues away
And I'll [D]be okay
[G]I'm not big on social graces
Think I'll [G]slip on down to the oasis
'Cause [Am]I've got friends[D]friends
In low p[G]places
[Instrumental]
[G] [Am] [D] [G]
[Verse]
Well I [G]guess I was wrong
I [G#dim7]just don't belong
But [Am]then, I've been there before
Every[D]Everything's alright
I'll [D7]just say goodnight
And I'll [G]show myself to the door
Hey [G]I didn't mean
To [G#dim7]cause a big scene
Just [Am]give me an hour and [Cm]then
[D]I'll be as high as that
[D7]Ivory tower
[D] That you're livin'
[D7]in
[Chorus]
'Cause [G]I got friends in low places
Where the [G]whiskey drowns and the beer chases
My b[Am]blues away
And I'll [D]be okay
[G]I'm not big on social graces
Think I'll [G]slip on down to the oasis
'Cause [Am]I've got friends[D]friends
In low p[G]places
(all together)
'Ca[G]'Cause I got friends in low places
Where the [G]whiskey drowns and the beer chases
My b[Am]blues away
And I'll [D]be okay
[G]I'm not big on social graces
Think I'll [G]slip on down to the oasis
'Cause [Am]I've got friends[D]friends
In low p[G]places
'Ca[G]'Cause I got friends in low places
Where the [G]whiskey drowns and the beer chases
My b[Am]blues away
And I'll [D]be okay
[G]I'm not big on social graces
Think I'll [G]slip on down to the oasis
'Cause [Am]I've got friends[D]friends
In low p[G]places
(fade out)
'Cause [G]I got friends in low places
Where the [G]whiskey drowns and the beer chases
My b[Am]blues away
And I'll [D]be okay
[G]I'm not big on social graces
Think I'll [G]slip on down to the oasis
'Cause [Am]I've got friends[D]friends
In low p[G]places
