D G
She's in some honky tonk tonight, I know
A D
She's dancing where the music's loud and lights are low
G
In a crowded bar she likes to hang around
A D
And as long as there's a honky tonk she'll never settle down
G
So close up the honky tonks, lock all the doors
A D
Don't let the one I love go there anymore
G
Close up the honky tonks, throw away the key
A D
And maybe the one I love will come back to me
[Solo]
D G A D
[Verse]
D G
If I had the power Id turn back time
A D
And live again the hours when she was all mine
G
It hurts to see her running with that crowd in town
A D
But as long as there's a honky tonk she'll never settle down
G
So close up the honky tonks, lock all the doors
A D
Don't let the one I love go there anymore
G
Close up the honky tonks, throw away the key
A
And maybe the one I love will come back to me
