'Friends in Low Places'  by Garth Brooks

These are the words and chords to 'Friends in Low Places'
as best I can remember.  If I gestimated wrong, it was not
intentional. :)

VERSE:

         
Blame it all on my roots
      dim
I showed up in boots
     
And ruined your black tie affair
     
The last one to know, the last one to show
          
I was the last one you thought you'd see there

      
And I saw the surprise
         dim
And the fear in his eyes
        
When I took his glass of champagne

I toasted you said honey we may be through

But you'll never hear me complain

CHORUS:
       
'Cause I 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

I think I'll step on out to the oasis
                   
'Cause I've got friends in low places

VERSE:

Well I guess I was wrong
I just don't belong
But hey, I've been there before
Everything's all right, I'll just say goodnight
& I'll show myself to the door

Hey I didn't mean to cause a big scene
Just give me an hour and then
I'll be as high as that ivory tower
That you're livin' in

CHORUS
