Capo 2

D D7 G D

I saw those blue lights flashing over my left shoulder

D G A

He walked right up and said get off that riding mower

D D7 G D

I said sir, let me explain before you put me in the tank

D G D A D

She took my keys away and then she won’t drive me to drink

G D

I need a honky tonk song, a cold, cold beer

D A

A hardwood floor, a smoky atmosphere

G D G

A pocket full of change to last me all night long

D A D

I’d rather hear old Hank a-moanin’ a honky tonk song

Guitar

D G D

He didn’t show me much compassion when I tried to walk that line

D G D A

As he put those handcuffs on me, I said give me one more try

D G D

He never even cracked a smile when he threw me in car

D G D A D

So I said, sir, if you don’t mind, would you drop me off at a bar

Chorus
