[E]
My drinking days are over
[A] [E]
No more nights at the Carousel
[E]
My buddies say they're gonna miss me but
[E] [B]
Who could ever tell
[A] [E]
I never knew what time it was
[E] [A]
Til closing time came round
[E] [B]
My drinking days are over
[A] [E]
But I'm still troublebound
[E]
I used to hang at the Horseshoe
[A] [E]
You'd see me spinning at the Broken Spoke
[E]
I'd take my gal to The Gaslight
[E] [B]
We lived on whiskey and smoke
[A] [E]
Don't know how it all started
[E] [A]
Didn't mean to hurt no one
[E] [B] [E]
Some bad luck and what's done can't be undone
Well it was way past midnight
Anetta hollered out last call
I turned around and Wranglin' Ron
Was headed for a brawl
I didn't know that other guy was a cop
I guess I didn't care
Sometime you gotta act like you gotta pair
Chorus
Steel solo
I got a ride out to Huntsville
I'll be there for a while
Staring out a mesh window
Mile after mile
I don't have any regrets, well
Maybe just a few
But a man's gonna do what he's gonna do
Chorus
