[3/4 time]
( G )Well I'm just a bar( G )tender
And I( C ) don't like my( A7 ) work
But I( D7 ) don't mind the money at( G ) all
( D7 )I've seen( C ) lots of sad( G7 ) faces
And( C ) lots of bad( A7 ) cases
Of( D7 ) folks with their backs to the ( G ) wall
( D7 )But I need( G ) four walls( G7 ) around me ( C )to hold my( A7 ) life
To ( D7 )keep me from going ( G )astray ( D7 )
And a( G ) honky tonk( G7 ) angel to( C ) hold me( A7 ) tight
To( D7 ) keep me from slipping( G ) away
Well I can light up your( G7 ) smokes
I can( C ) laugh at your( A7 ) jokes
I can( D7 ) watch you fall down on your( G ) knees
( D7 )I can ( G )close down this( G7 ) bar
Oh ( C )and gas up my( A7 ) car
And I( D7 ) can pack up and mail in my( G ) keys
( D7 )But I need( G ) four walls( G7 ) around me ( C )to hold my( A7 ) life
To ( D7 )keep me from going ( G )astray ( D7 )
And a( G ) honky tonk( G7 ) angel to( C ) hold me( A7 ) tight
To( D7 ) keep me from slipping( G ) away
Now the smoke fills the( G7 ) air
Of( C ) this honky tonk( A7 ) bar
And I'm( D7 ) thinking bout where I'd rather( G ) be
( D7 )But I( G ) burned all my( G7 ) bridges
And I ( C ) sunk all my( A7 ) ships
And( D7 ) I'm standing at the edge of the( G ) sea
