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
