I told you that I found a girl who’d always treat me right
A E B7
Who’d stay out of the honky tonks and love me every night
E A E
So I left you and took the girl that I’d thought would be true
A E B7 E
But how that I wish I still had the honky tonks and you
E A E
I wear the very finest clothes my pockets full of dough
A E B7
But the love I got from you with her I’ll never know
E A E
Oh I have everything I need except the love we knew
A E B7 E
But how that I wish I still had the honky tonks and you
E A E
I mingle with the upper class I drive the finest cars
A E B7
I drink the most expensive brands and smoke the best cigars
E A E
I didn’t know I miss you so and things we used to do
A E B7 E
Oh what I'd give if I still had the honky tonks and you
