[N] [F#] I'm a honky [E]-tonk man, and I can't seem to stop.
I love to give the girls a whirl to [A] the music of an old [E] jukebox,
but when my money's all [B] gone, I'm on the telephone,
calling, [E]
hey, hey, mama, can your daddy come home?
I'm living fast [B] and dangerously, but [F#m] I've got plenty of [E] company.
When the moon comes up [B] and the sun goes down,
[A] that's when I want to see the lights [E] uptown,
cause I'm a honky-tonk man, and I can't seem to stop.
