Piano Intro then . . .
Intro C G D G 2X
CG
Where in hell did you go?
DCG
You left us all alone I wasn't even eighteen.
D
You never turned around
CG
Like some kid out on the run
DCG
you headed for the fun down in Biloxi
D
and the Gulf of Mexico
Chorus
CG
Where I guess the girls they're pretty
CG
and nobody says it's late
DC
and you can stay out all night long and never have hell to pay
G
down in Biloxi
D
even when you're forty-one
CD
just forget your problems
G
down in Biloxi
CG
And you only came around
DCG
to take a rest and come down from Biloxi
D
but you were not the same
CG
pretending that you cared
DCG
pretending you were there and not in Biloxi
D
and the Gulf of Mexico
Chorus
Solo
CG
Did you really think you'd find
DCG
more than you left behind back home in Houston?
D
we all felt the loss
CG
I don't mean to bring you down
DCG
but I wonder what you found there in Biloxi
D
tell me, was it worth the cost?
CG
Well I hope the girls were pretty
CG
and nobody said it was late
DC
and I hope you stayed out all night long and never had hell to pay
G
down in Biloxi
D
when you were forty-one
D
You forgot your problems
G
down in Biloxi.
Solo until end
This sounds right to me.
