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 



              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

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

They?re in need of a mindbender

I?m a bartender

At the end of the day
