{verse} 
C5 G5 D5 
Where in hell did you go? 
E5 G5 
You left us all alone I wasn't even eighteen. 
D5 
You never turned around 
C5 G5 D5 
Like some kid out on the run 
E5 G5  
you headed for the fun down in Bilouxi 
D5  
and the Gulf of Mexico 
 

C5 G5 
Where I guess the girls there are pretty 
C5 G5  
and nobody says it's late 
G5 D5 C5   
 

and you can stay out all night long and never have 

hell to pay 
G5 
down in Biloxi 
D5 
even when you're fourty-one 
C5 D5 
you forget you problems 
G5 
down in Biloxi 
 
 
And you only came around 
to take a rest and come down from Biloxi 
but you were not the same 
pretending that you cared 
pretending that you were there and not in Biloxi 
and the Gulf of Mexico 
 
Where I guess the girls there are pretty 
and nobody says it's late 
and you can stay out all night long and never have 
hell to pay 
down in Biloxi 
even when you're fourty-one 
you can forget you problems 
down in Biloxi 
 
did you really think you'd find 
more than you left behind back home in Houston? 
we all felt the loss 
I don't mean to bring you down 
but I wonder what you found there in Biloxi 
tell me, was it worth the cost? 
 
Well I hope the girls were pretty 
and nobody said it was late 
and I hope you stayed out all night long and never had 
hell to pay 
down in Biloxi 
when you were fourty-one 
You forget your problems 
down in Biloxi.
