[E] I went honky tonkin' 
last Saturday [B7] night
Dancin' and prancin' 
beneath the neon [E] lights
Pocket full of silver 
and [E7] not a  care in the [A] world
Havin' fun and [E] flirtin' 
with them [B7] honky tonk [E] girls

[E] Honky tonkin' baby, 
I'm gonna make you [B7] mine
Eyes that sparkle like the stars, 
lips that's sweeter than [E] wine
Two step with ole' Willie, 
and [E7] slow dance with ole' [A] Merle
Goin' round in [E] circles 
with them [B7] honky tonk [E] girls 

[E] Honky tonk girls, 
honky tonk [A] girls
with their [B7] big hair and their rhinestones 
and their [E] pearls
Honky tonk girls, 
[E7] honky tonk [A] girls
Well come [B7] Saturday night well I'm getting' tight
with them honky tonk [E] girls

Instrumental:

[E] All day long I'm workin' hard
pushin' this broom [B7] around
Thinkn' about the things I'll do
goin' out on the [E] town
When that yellow moon comes
[E7] shinin' on this old [A] world
I'll be makin' [E] love to my [B7] honky tonk [E] girl

[E] Honky tonk girls, 
honky tonk [A] girls
with their [B7] big hair and their rhinestones 
and their [E] pearls

Honky tonk girls, 
[E7] honky tonk [A] girls
Well every [B7] Saturday night well I'm getting' tight
with them honky tonk [E] girls

Well every [B7] Saturday night well I'm getting' tight
with those honky tonk [E] girls
