Chords

by Tom T. Hall **(As a Spokane native, I just love this song but couldn't find the chords, So here's what I think they are~) [Chorus]
   C                   F            C
I don't know what I'm doing here, I could be someplace else

 F                        G
Like in Atlanta drinkin' wine, wine, wine

  C                     F            C
I don't know what I'm doing here, I should be someplace else

 F                         G
Like in Kentucky drinkin shine, shine, shine
[Verse 1]
 Am                           C
The dogs are running down in Memphis

 Am                           C
And them nags are running in L.A. yeah

 Am                              C
I'm stuck in Spokane in a motel room

 F                              G
And there ain't no way to get away
[Verse 2]
 Am                             C
Willie Nelson's picking out in Austin

 Am                          C
And Waylon's hanging out in Mexico

 Am                              C
I'm stuck in Spokane in a motel room

 F                                G
And Kris is making moving picture shows
[Chorus]
 C                           F            C
Hey, I don't know what I'm doing here, I could be someplace else

 F                        G
Like in Atlanta drinkin' wine, wine, wine

 C                      F             C
I don't know what I'm doing here, I should be someplace else

 F                         G
Like in Kentucky drinkin' shine, shine, shine
[Verse 3]
 Am                                 C
Well I know they're dancing in New Orleans

 Am                          C
And old Chicago's bright as day

 Am                              C
I'm stuck in Spokane in a motel room

 F                                 G
Lord, I wish I had a Dolly Parton tape
[Verse 4]
 Am                                       C
Well Hill and Bare and Billy Joe they're gambling

 Am                                   C
And ol TP's frying croppie all night long

 Am                               C
They're down at Tootsie's eating chili

 F                              G
I'm stuck in Spokane a writing songs
[Chorus]
         C                  F             C
Hey, I don't know what I'm doing here, I could be someplace else

 F                         G
Like in Atlanta drinkin' wine, wine, wine

   C                    F            C
I don't know what I'm doing here, I should be someplace else

 F                         G
Like in Kentucky drinkin' clear moonshine
