Standard (EADGBE)
Well I left my home down on the rural route
I told my paw Iâm going steppin out and get the
Honky tonk blues, hey the honky tonk blues
Hey lord I got em, I got the ho-on-ky tonk blues
Îell I went to a dance and I wore out my shoes
woke up this mornin wishin I could lose
them jumpin honky tonk blues, hey the honky tonk blues
Oh lord I got em, I go the ho-on-ky tonk blues
Solo
Îell I stopped into every place in town
this city life has really got me down
I got the honky tonk blues, hey the honky tonk blues
Îell lord I got em, I got the ho-on-ky tonk blues
Iâm gonna tuck my worries underneath my arm
And scat right back to my pappyâs farm
And leave these honky tonk blues, hey the honky tonk blues
Oh lord I got em, I go the ho-on-ky tonk blues
