Honky Tonk Song Chords by George Jones

_ _ _ I saw those blue lights [E] flashing _ _ [A] over my left [E] shoulder
He _ [A] walked right up [E] and said, get off that riding mower
[B] I said, [E] sir, let me _ [B] explain before [A] you put me in [E] the tank _
She took [A] my _ keys [E] away and [B] now she won't drive me [E] to dream
_ _ I need a honky [A]-tonk song, _ _ a [E] cocoa beer
_ A _ _ hardwood floor, _ _ a smoky [B] atmosphere _
_ _ _ A pocket full [A] of _ _ change that'll last me all [E] night long
_ _ [A] _ _ I [E] got a hero's hand, [B] I'm on a honky [E]-tonk song
_ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ [A] _ _

_ _ [B] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _
[B] _ _ _ _ He didn't show me _ much compassion [A] when I tried to walk [Em] that line
_ [E] As he put [A] those handcuffs [E] on me, I said, give me one [B] more try _ _ _
He [E] never even cracked a smile _ [A] when he threw me in [E] the car
So I said, sir, if [A] you don't mind, oh, [B] would you drop me off at [E] a bar?
_ _ I need a honky [A]-tonk song, _ _ a [E] cocoa beer
_ _ A hardwood floor, _ a smoky [B] atmosphere _
_ A _ pocket [A] full of _ _ change that'll last me [E] all night long
[A] _ _ I [E] got a hero's hand, [B] I'm on a honky [E]-tonk song
_ _ [A] _ _ I [E] got a hero's hand, [B] I'm on a honky [E]-tonk song
