INTRO: [F] [F open]
CHORUS:
Well, I'm a honky tonk
[F] man, and I can't seem to stop
I love to give the girls a
[A#] whirl to the music of an old juke-
[F]-box
But when my money's all
[C7] gone, I'm on the telephone
Singing
[F open] hey-hey, mama can your daddy come home
[F]
VERSE 1:
Now
[F] I'm living wild and
[C7] dangerously
But
[A#] I've got plenty of
[F] company
When the moon comes up and the
[C7] sun goes down
[A#] I can't wait to see the
[F] lights of town
[F open]
REPEAT CHORUS:
BREAK: [over CHORUS]
REPEAT CHORUS:
VERSE 2:
A
[F] pretty little girl and a
[C7] jug of wine
Well
[A#] that's what it takes to make a
[F] honky tonk time
With the jukebox moaning those
[C7] honky tonk sounds
[A#] I can't wait to lay my
[F] money down
[F open]
