[C]
Ricky got the quarters for the table and broke
        [F]
While I pulled hard on the sorrow and smoke
[C]
Raising up my bottle I looked for a chance
       [F]
As you set your glass down on the bar with a glance at me


Chorus 1:-i
[G]           [F]         [C]
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
[G]                [F]    [C]
Shuffleboard and neon light
[G]           [F]         [C]
Down at the Horseshoe Lounge
[G]              [F]         [C]
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:
[F]                    [C]
Were you the one who faltered
    [G]             [C]
Was I the one who strayed
      [F]           [C]                   [G]
Maybe God left us out of the plans he made
