E             A              E
Every night I work in places neon light and lonely faces
A                E                              B
People dance and drink away the evening while I play
E                A          E    
I ask myself why do I do it I guess that thers' just something to it
A                E                B        E
Getting paid for something I'd be doing anyway
E                   A 
I wish that I could have a dollar 
E
For every drunk that I've hear hollar
A                         E                      B
Every passed out bar room brawler sleeping off a fight
E                   A
And all the stories I've been told
E
I guess I'd have a pot pf gold
A              E              B                E 
If even just a single one had turned out to be right
A                          E     B
Playing me some honky tonk music
E                          B
That's the kind I like to play
A                          E   B
Playing me some honky tonk music
E          B              E
That's the kind I like to play
E                  A
I've seen a lot of girls get lied to
E
And I'll admit there's time I tried too
A                     E                               B
Some nights when it's getting late the woman looks so fine
E                   A 
I played in bars I didn't care for
E
I didn't know what I was there for
A                E                      B          E
But all in all I wouldn't change things even if I could
A                          E     B
Playing me some honky tonk music
E                          B
That's the kind I like to play
A                          E   B
Playing me some honky tonk music
E          B              E
That's the kind I like to play
