I told you that I found a girl who’d always treat me right
E B F#7
Who’d stay out of the honky tonks and love me every night
B E B
So I left you and took the girl that I’d thought would be true
E B F#7 B
But how that I wish I still had the honky tonks and you
B E B
I wear the very finest clothes my pockets full of dough
E B F#7
But the love I got from you with her I’ll never know
B E B
Oh I have everything I need except the love we knew
E B F#7 B
But how that I wish I still had the honky tonks and you
B E B
I mingle with the upper class I drive the finest cars
E B F#7
I drink the most expensive brands and smoke the best cigars
B E B
I didn’t know I miss you so and things we used to do
E B F#7 B
Oh what I'd give if I still had the honky tonks and you
