Honky Tonk Heroes
By Waylon Jennings
C
Low down leaving sun I've done
F
Did everything that needs done
CA7
Woe is mewhy can't I see
D7G7
I best be leaving well enough alone
C
Them neon black nights couldn't stay out of fights
F
Them keep a haunting me memories
CA7
There is one in every crowd for crying out loud
D7G7
Why was it always turning out be me
C
Where does it go the good Lord only knows
F
It seems like it was just the other day
CA7
I was down at Green Gables hawking them tables
D7G7
And generally blowing all my hard earned pay
C
Piano rolled blues danced holes in my shoes
F
There weren't another other way to be
CA7
For loveable losers no luck can't boozers
D7G7C
And honky tonk heroes like me
Repeat # 3 & 4
