Hawkshaw Hawkins - I Aint Going Honky Tonking Anymore

      G
I ain't going honky tonking anymore

C                               G
And I know I've heard that said before

C
Troubles all I've ever had 

G
And it almost makes me bad

    D7                          G
But I ain't going honky tonking anymore



Now my gal has really done me wrong

C                                    G
I guess that's why I hate to stay at home

C
For I always get the blues
 
G
And I've tried so hard to lose

    D7                          G
But I ain't going honky tonking anymore



Somehow this life seems so unfair

C                                     G
I love a girl that just don't seem to care

C
I give her everything I've had 

G
Then she tries to treat me bad

    D7                          G
But I ain't going honky tonking anymore

 

Now you have troubles that you need to drown

C                                G
You can't do it by honky tonking round

C
You may stay out every night
 
G
But you'll never win the fight

   D7                     G
So don't go honky tonking anymore



Not that I have almost blowed my top

C                                   G
And something tells my I had better stop

C
So I'm changing all my ways

G
And getting myself out of this daze

    D7                          G
And I ain't going honky tonking anymore



Perhaps someday I will find a true love

C                                   G
A girl that's just as pure as stars above

C
One who knows how to be a wife

G
And really loves me all her life

     D7                       G
Then I won't go honky tonking anymore
