Detailed Description
SKU: A0.1800943
By Garth Brooks. By Dewayne Blackwell and Earl Bud Lee. Arranged by George Willson. This edition: pdf. 20th Century, Country, Folk, Rock. Lead Sheet / Fake Book. 5 pages. George Willson #1361106. Published by George Willson (A0.1800943).Capture the rowdy, sing-along spirit of Garth Brooks’ "Friends in Low Places" with this professional Performance Lead Sheet. This chart provides the essential, complete, nearly 6 minute, form of the song—including the legendary Live 3rd Verse—laid out in a continuous sequence to ensure your performance builds from a quiet acoustic intro to a full-room roar. It features the complete, conversational vocal melody, the iconic storytelling lyrics, and the foundational country chord changes that define this 90s country staple. Crucially, the sheet includes the arpeggiated acoustic guitar intro, instrumentals between sections, and the chords that lead from the end of the album version into the high-energy "3rd Verse" (the "kiss my ass" version), allowing you to capture the song's signature transition from a formal black-tie affair to a beer-swinging celebration into the live ending. This is the definitive, performance-ready resource for musicians looking to master the definitive "last song of the night."
What is a “performance lead sheet”? A performance lead sheet streamlines chords, melody, and lyrics into a single continuous layout for tablets, eliminating repeats, D.S.’s, and codas so performers can simply page forward through the entire song. Each section—verse, chorus, bridge, and so on—is clearly labeled with rehearsal markers for quick navigation. The only repeats are self-contained vamps, kept on a single page to avoid page-turning backward. The goal is to make performing easier by presenting the song in its complete, best-known form so musicians can focus on playing rather than remembering forms or tricky sections. I originally created these for my own cover band, and they’ve made last-minute additions far more manageable. I hope they help you, too.
