(verse)
Bb
Brady was a baseball star
Dm Gm Eb
Til he struck out and took his car and drove away, mmmm
Bb
Sissy lost her little boy
Dm Gm Eb
Hitch-hiked up to Illinois, so they say
(verse)
Cm7
Then it rained so hard that Mary tried
Gm
To take her life with suicide
Cm7 F
And disappear just like the thunder
Cm7
You ask around and no-one knows
Gm7
Where they went or what they do
F
But you wonder, I know you wonder
(chorus)
Bb
Where do they go?
D
They come here
Eb Ebm
To drown in their sorrow and cry in their beer
Bb D
They’re in need of a mindbender
Eb
I’m a bartender
C7
At the end of the day
Bb F
I’m all they’ve got
F Bb
Hope on the rocks
(verse)
Bb
Charlie’s wife filed for divorce
Dm Gm Eb
And Charlie bought a quarter horse and now he's ridin' fences, mmmmm
Bb
Upside down and couldn’t pay
Dm
They hauled Sue's mobile home away
Gm Eb
And we ain’t seen her since
(verse)
Cm7
Larry’s long time fiance'
Gm
Got kicked out of the P.T.A.
Cm7 F
And moved her kids back east with someone else
Cm7
All and the ones you used to know
Gm7
Don’t drop in or say hello
Cm7
But you ask yourself
F
I know you ask yourself
(chorus)
Bb
Where do they go?

I’m all they’ve got
