Somebody Save The Honky Tonks

A D

  D
I drove down to The Trap but the 
joint was closed
Lately they've been droppin' like 
Dominos
A                                 
All of my favorite waterin' holes 
    D
are dryin' up
Tell me is it too much
For a man to ask
To hear Haggard and Jones sing CC 
     A
Waterback
With the lights so low
And cold drafts will cost you one 
D
buck
Enough's enough.

G
Somebody Save The Honky Tonks
    D                              
The hard wood floor and the quarter
         A
 jukebox
Where's the workin' man gonna go to 
    D
get tore up
When the last one's tore down

G
Somebody Save the neon lights
        D
And the cinderblock shacks crossed 
the county line
A
Everyday another piece of history's 
lost
                  D            A D B
Somebody Save The Honky Tonks.

          E
Well it's enough to bring a tear to 
a blood shot eye
Not knowin' where to go on a Friday 
night
       B
To get down and get loud
                  E
And unwind from a hard day
Listen, we the people got a make a 
stand
Maybe write a letter to our 
congressman
B
Show some support for the drinkin' 
man
   E
We can't wait, until it's too late.

B
Why don't they take that ol' 
wreckin' ball
To the uppity bars, down at the mall
All I'm askin, all I want
                  E (Stop)     B E
Somebody Save The Honky Tonks.
