Verse 3:

        D                         G                  D
I ain't never been to Vegas but I gambled all my life

                                             A
Building newsprint boats I raced in sewer mains

G                 D               Bm     A         G
Trying to find me something but I wasn't sure just what

      D                 A                 D
Funny how they say that some things never change

(repeat chorus)

Verse 4:
Up here in the city, it feels like things are closin' in
The sunset's just my light bulb burning out 
I miss Kentucky and I miss my family
All the sweetest winds they blow across the south

(repeat chorus)

During the verses 3 and 4, add small hammer on such as 

D|--2h4--|

between some chords to make it sound better.

I thinks this tab is 100% ok, but if there are any suggestions or corrections then let 
me know
