Capo 4
[]
Ricky got the quarters for the table and broke
[]
While I pulled hard on the sorrow and smoke
[]
Raising up my bottle I looked for a chance
[]
As you set your glass down on the bar with a glance at me
[Chorus 1]
[] [] []
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
[] [] []
Shuffleboard and neon light
[] [] []
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
[] [] []
Cigarettes and whiskey tonight
[]
Ricky said She s out of your league, let her go
[]
As I watched you pick your partner on that old dance floor
[]
I know it didn t work out the first time we tried
[]
But I d do anything to have you by my side again
[Chorus 2]
[] [] []
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
[] [] []
Peel the label off a Miller Lite
[] [] []
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
[] [] []
I sit here thinking bout you every night
[Bridge]
[] []
Were you the one who faltered
[] []
Was I the one who strayed
[] [] []
Maybe God left us out of the plans he made
[]
So here s to missed beginnings and things that never start
[]
For these are the ghosts that run around in my heart
[]
When I see that where I m going isn t where I want to be
[]
I get the urge to look you up see if you would come and meet me
[Chorus 3]
[] [] []
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
[] [] []
Hey, buddy have you got a light
[] [] []
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
[] [] []
One more and I ll be alright
[]
Ricky got the quarters for the table and broke
[]
(Sing slowly) While I pulled hard on the sorrow and smoke
