Capo 1st fret
intro MI FA#m7 MI/SOL#
LA LA7
Now I'm just a bartender
RE SIm7
And I don't like my work
MI LA MI FA#m7 MI/SOL#
But I don't mind the money at all
LA LA7
I see lots of sad faces
RE SIm7
And lots of bad cases
MI LA MI FA#m7 MI/SOL#
Of folks with their backs to the wall
LA LA7 RE SIm7
Chorus: But I need four walls around me to hold my life
MI LA MI FA#m7 MI/SOL#
To keep me from going a-stray
LA LA7 RE SIm7
And a honky-tonk angel to hold me tight
MI LA MI FA#m7 MI/SOL#
To keep me from slipping away
LA LA7
I can light up your smokes
RE SIm7
I can laugh at your jokes
MI LA MI FA#m7 MI/SOL#
I can watch you fall down on your knees
LA LA7
I can close down this bar
RE SIm7
I can gas up my car
MI LA MI FA#m7 MI/SOL#
I can pack up and mail in my key
Chorus
LA LA7
Now, the smoke fills the air
RE SIm7
In this honky-tonk bar
MI LA MI FA#m7 MI/SOL#
And I'm thinking 'bout where I'd rather be
LA LA7
But I burned all my bridges
RE SIm7
I sank all my ships
MI LA MI FA#m7 MI/SOL#
And I'm stranded at the edge of the sea
Chorus
