Room 205 Chase Rice
Capo 1
I'm just four [Bm]walls with a little paint, a picture here or there
I got a [G]Bible in my dresser, just in case somebody cares
[Bm]I've been here forever, 1959
My [G]name is on the front door, they call me 205
And [Bm]man you can't imagine, the things that happen here
I've [G]seen my share of laughing and I've seen a lot of tears
[Bm]Drug deals and last meals and love that seemed so real
Un[G]til I saw the flash of those hundred dollar bills
But let me [A]tell you something crazy, that I'd never seen before
Starts with [G]Johnny and Katie, first time they walked through my door
Chorus 1:
It was a [Bm]Friday night, late fall
After a [G]high school football [A]game
They snuck away, in a [Bm]beat up Chevrolet
Yeah they [Bm]made love for the first time
Till that [G]Carolina sun came [A]up
That's where it all be[G]gan
At the [A]Conway Motor [Bm]Inn
Well they l[Bm]it a cigarette, and talked about their lives
Said th[G]ey were getting married, after graduation night
It[Bm] all seemed so perfect, but they didn't have a clue
[G]That one be one of them would be right back here with someone new
[Bm]Now fast forward four years, and that white picket fence
[G]It ain't holding out what it should be keeping in
[A]See, I see Katie on the weekends, when Johnny's working nights
[G]And the man she's coming here with, ain't the man I recognize
Chorus 2:
[Bm]It was a Friday night, late fall
After a h[G]igh school foot[A]ball game
They snuck away[Bm], in her lover's Escalade
Yeah they made love for the first time
Till John[G]ny's graveyard sh[A]ift was up
Both livin' in si[G]n
At the C[A]onway Mot[Bm]or Inn
Bridge:
[Bm]Tonight Johnny ain't working, cause he's right here with me
With a [G]pistol in his right hand, just waitin' on the key
To [Bm]turn in my door, and when they both walk in
He [G]lays that hammer down, and that's where this story ends
Chorus 3:
[Bm]It was a Friday night, late fall
After a h[G]igh school foot[A]ball game
They snuck[Bm] away, in a beat up Chevrolet
Yeah they made love for the first time
Till [G]that Carolina[A] sun came up
That's where it al[G]l began
And that's where it all ends
[A]At the Conway M[Bm]otor Inn
At the Conway Motor Inn
