(Capo 4)
Intro: D G | D G | D G A
Verse 1:
GDGD
I've made some good friends and I've had some bad fights
GDA
And I've had my share of wasted nights
GDGD
I've seen husbands take the ring off their hand
GDAD
And I've seen a woman cheat on her man
GA
Yea I've had a few paychecks blown
GA
In the name of a good time, don't you know?
Chorus:
GDAD
It all happened in a honky tonk
GDA
Some roadside joint full of country songs
GDABm
Laughin' and cryin', misery and fun
GA
And every kind of drinkin' that's ever been done
GA
Yea I've seen a lot of life lived
GAD
It all happened in a honky tonk like this
(Intro)
Verse 2:
GDGD
I sing these songs and I play this guitar
GDA
But I ain't the first one to chase this star
GDGD
So here's to the heroes of this redneck world
GDAD
Waylon and Willie, Hank and Merle
GA
They traveled round with a five piece band
GA
And I think you know where this music began
(Chorus)
(Intro/Solo)
(Chorus/Outro)
