Verse 1
A A#dim7
Blame it all on my roots, I showed up in boots
Bm Bm7
And ruined your black tie affair,
E
The last one to know, the last one to show,
A
I was the last one you thought you'd see there
A A#dim7
And I saw the surprise and the fear in his eyes
Bm7 Dm
When I took his glass of champagne and
E
I toasted you, said, “Honey, we may be through, but you'll never hear me complain”
Chorus
A
'Cause I’ve got friends in low places where the whiskey drowns
Bm7 E
And the beer chases my blues away, and I'll be okay. Yeah,
A
I'm not big on social graces. Think I'll slip on down to the Oasis
Bm7 E
Oh, 'Cause I've got friends in low places

Verse 2
A A#dim7
Guess I was wrong, I just don't belong
Bm Bm7
But then, I've been there before
E A
Everything's alright, I'll just say goodnight and I'll show myself to the door
A A#dim7
Hey, I didn't mean to cause a big scene,
Bm7 Dm
Just give me an hour and then,
E
Well, I'll be as high as that ivory tower that you're livin' in.
Chorus
