Blame it all on my roots, I showed up in boots

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 and the fear in his eyes
Bm Dm
When I took his glass of champagne
E E7
I toasted you, said honey we may be through
E
But you'll never hear me complain
Chorus:
A
Cuz I got friends in low places
A Bm
Where the whiskey drowns and the beer chases my blues away
E
And I'll be OK
A
Now I'm not big on social graces
A7
Think I'll slip on down to the oasis
Bm E A
So I've got friends in low places

Well I guess I was wrong, I just don't belong
Bm
Then I've been there before

Everything's all right, I'll just say goodnight
A
And I'll show myself to the door
A A#dim7
Hey I didn't mean to cause a big scene
Bm Dm
Just give me an hour and then
E E7
I'll be as high as that ivory tower
E
That you're livin' in

Cuz I got friends in low places

Where the whiskey drowns and the beer chases my blues away

And you can kiss my ass
