[B] [A]
[D] Here's one of them started it all.
Lowdown leavin' sun
He done did everything that needs done
Oh, woe is me
Why [B] can't I see
[E]
I best be leavin' well [A] enough for long

Where does it go?
The good Lord only knows
Seemed like it was just the other [G] day
When I was down at Green Cable
[B] Honkin' them [E] tables
And gently [A] blowin' my hard [B]-earned pay

There weren't another other [G] way to be
For them lovable losers

Seemed like it was just [G] the other day
When I was down at [D] Green Cable
Honkin' [B] them tables
[Em] And gently blowin' [A] my hard-earned pay
