C                             F
She stood there with tears in her beautiful eyes

G7                            C      G7
Said the closest she'd be was around

    C                   F
And now she was leaving cause she couldn't fight

G7                     C
My honky tonk merry go round


                  F
If it was a woman she'd know what to do

G7                              C    G7
But she couldn't take being put down

   C                     F
My bottles and bar rooms night after night

G7                        C
Of my honky tonk merry go round


         F                                  C
Cause my pay checks still buys tickets that come in flip top cans

D7                              G7
My silver dimes still strike up that old juke box band

F                          C          A7
Where once rode a king now sad lonely clown

   Dm       G7                  C
Is riding a honky tonk merry go round


                                  F
So she left me and I thought well maybe that’s good

G7                       C     G7
I won’t feel so guilty tonight

    C                   F
But some how some where something went wrong

G7                          C
With my complete honky tonk life


         F                                  C
Cause my pay checks still buys tickets that come in flip top cans

D7                              G7
My silver dimes still strike up that old juke box band

F                          C          A7
Where once rode a king now sad lonely clown

   Dm       G7                  C
Is riding a honky tonk merry go round


Dm          G7                  C
Is riding a honky tonk merry go round
