[E]
[Bm] [E]
I was born a rambling man [A] with swamp water on my [E] [Gb] hand.
[Em] [E] Daddy died so young and I had to help mama [B] get by.
[Em] So [E] I learned how to [Em] sing those songs.
I learned [A] how to honky-tonk my [E] own.
And I learned how to [Bbm] sleep [B] in a different bed [E] every night.
[Em]
[E] Sometimes we slept in the car.
[A] Lots of times we slept in some [E] old bar.
Well, then we got a bus and we thought we were flying [B] real high.
But [E] the best place I ever stayed
[D] where I [A] really learned how to sing and [E] how to play,
I got the good [A] times [Bb] on [B] my mind at the [E] Hotel Whiskey.
Lord, I want to [A] go [Bb] back [B] down there to [E] Hotel Whiskey.
Oh, I want to drink and dance and watch the ladies [Dbm] prance and [B] get frisky.
Yes, I do.
[D] No, [E] I'm not going to worry about driving a car.
[A] I'll go up and get a room and bring my old guitar.
I [E] got the good times [Bbm] on [B] my mind down there at [E] Hotel Whiskey.
I'm not a kid anymore, but [A] this ain't no [E] midlife [Em] crisis.
Because [E] the whiskey and women have always been [B] my vices.
Uh-huh.
[A] I'm [E] going to buy a drink and take it to the band
[A] and talk to that gal that's got my heart in her hands.
I [E] got the good times on [B] my mind down there at Hotel [E] Whiskey.
Lord, I want [A] [Bb] [B] to go back down to [E] Hotel Whiskey.
[A] [E]
I'm going to drink and dance and watch the women prance and [B] get frisky.
Oh, yes, indeed.
[Db] No, [E] I'm not going to worry about driving a car.
I [A] got a bottle and a room and my old guitar.
I [E] got the good times on my [B] mind down there at Hotel [E] Whiskey.
What do you say, Clint?
Hank, before I die, I want to tie one on
[A] and go with you and listen to them songs.
I [E] got the good times on [B] my mind.
Yeah, well, [A] let's blow it out one more [B] time.
Well, [A] Hank, let's all go [B] on down
[E] at the Hotel Whiskey.
[G] [Am] [B] [Dbm] [E]
