G C She's in some honky tonk tonight I know D7 G She's dancing where the music's loud and lights are low C In a crowded bar she likes to hang around D7 G And as long as there's a honky tonk she'll never settle down C So close up the honky tonks lock all the doors D7 G Don't let the one I love go there any more C Close up the honky tonks throw away the key D7 G Then maybe the one I love will come back to me C I wish I had the power to turn back the time D7 G And live again the hours when she was all mine C But it hurts to see her running with that crowd downtown D7 G And as long as there's a honky tonk she'll never settle down C So close up the honky tonks lock all the doors D7 G Don't let the one I love go there any more C Close up the honky tonks throw away the key D7 G Then maybe the one I love will come back to me
