Capo 4
[(D)]Ricky got the quarters for the table and broke
While I [(G)]pulled hard on the sorrow and smoke
[(D)]Raising up my bottle I looked for a chance
As you [(G)]set your glass down on the bar with a glance at me
Chorus 1:
[(A)]Down at the Ho[(G)]rseshoe Loun[(D)]ge
[(A)]Shuffleboard and ne[(G)]on ligh[(D)]t
[(A)]Down at the Ho[(G)]rseshoe Loun[(D)]ge
[(A)]Cigarettes and wh[(G)]iskey tonigh[(D)]t
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:
[(G)]Were you the one who fa[(D)]ltered
Was [(A)]I the one who st[(D)]rayed
Maybe [(G)]God left us ou[(D)]t of the plans he made[(A)]
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
Repeat Chorus 2
Ricky got the quarters for the table and broke
(Sing slowly) While I pulled hard on the sorrow and smoke
