Spokane Motel Blues

   C                   F          
I don't know what I'm doing here, 
  C
I could be someplace else
 F                        G
Like in Atlanta drinkin' wine, wine,
 wine
  C                     F         
I don't know what I'm doing here, 
   C
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                           
Willie Nelson's picking out in 
  C
Austin
 Am                          C
And Waylon's hanging out in Mexico
Continues after the ad
 Am                              C
I'm stuck in Spokane in a motel room
 F                                
And Kris is making moving picture 
G
shows

[Chorus]
 C                           F 
Hey, I don't know what I'm doing 
           C
here, I could be someplace else
 F                        G
Like in Atlanta drinkin' wine, wine,
 wine
 C                      F         
I don't know what I'm doing here, 
    C
I should be someplace else
 F                         G
Like in Kentucky drinkin' shine, 
shine, shine

[Verse 3]
 Am                                
Well I know they're dancing in New 
 C
Orleans
 Am                          C
And old Chicago's bright as day
 Am                              C
I'm stuck in Spokane in a motel room
 F                               
Lord, I wish I had a Dolly Parton 
  G
tape

[Verse 4]
 Am                             
Well Hill and Bare and Billy Joe 
          C
they're gambling
 Am                                
And ol TP's frying croppie all 
   C
night long
 Am                             
They're down at Tootsie's eating 
  C
chili
 F                              G
I'm stuck in Spokane a writing songs

[Chorus]
         C                  F  
Hey, I don't know what I'm doing 
           C
here, I could be someplace else
 F                         G
Like in Atlanta drinkin' wine, wine,
 wine
   C                    F         
I don't know what I'm doing here, 
   C
I should be someplace else
 F                         G
Like in Kentucky drinkin' clear 
moonshine
