     C                        D7
Well I don't care if I get arrested, 
       G                                       C      G
'Cos tonight they'll need more than a ball and chain, 
C                      D7
I don't care who's interested, 
    G                         C     G
I'm coming into town just the same. 
          C                   C7
I've been so alone, I've been feeling blue, 
  F                     F#dim
I think I need a little drink or two, 
C                               D7
Be my friend, tell me where the place is, 
          G                                     C      G
Where the whiskey flows and the dices roll till dawn? 

   C                                  D7
My baby's done me wrong you must have guessed it, 
   G                                 C      G
My heart's so low I think it must be told, 
     C                                D7
That I don't wanna know where east or west is, 
     G                            C      G
'Cos pretty soon I won't feel the cold. 
         C                        C7
When I'm walking down mainstreet, feeling no pain, 
 F                        F#dim
Along comes a cop, he can take my name, 
    C                            D7
And explain to me what a federal case is, 
    G                                C       
I'm mixing the barley with the grape again. 

E           Am      E              Am
Bright city lights, make me feel alright, 
D7                       G            G7
I'm right or wrong and tomorrow never comes.

C                            D7
I don't care if I get investigated, 
        G                              C       G
And the city fathers they all black my name. 

    C                                  D7
I'm pretty sure that you can smell the traces, 
      G                                 C       G
For tomorrow morning, I'll take all the blame. 
          C               C7
I've been feeling bad and feeling blue, 
  F                     F#dim
I think I need a little whiskey or two, 
C                                                    D7
God, brother, you look like you could do with it too. 
(That's true) 
G                                    C    G
Tonight I'll sleep on a walking-cane.
