Honky Tonk Merry Go Round 
 
E5                              A5
She stood there, with tears in, her beautiful eyes 
B5                               E5
Said the closest, she'd be, was around 

And now she was leaving 
A5
Cause she couldn't fight 
B5                      E5
My honky tonk merry go round 
E5
If it was a woman 
A5
She'd know what to do 
B5                                 E5
But she couldn't take the end put down 
                           A5
My bottles, and bar rooms, night after night 
B5                         E5
Of my honky tonk merry go round 
 
CHORUS 
         A5
Cause my pay checks still buys tickets 
     E5
That come in flip top cans 
F#5                                B5
My silver dimes, still strike up, that old juke box band 
A5                           E5          Db5
Where once rode a king, now sad lonely clown 
   F#5      B5                   E5
Is riding a honky tonk merry go round 
E5                                 A5
So she left me and I though, well maybe thats good 
B5                         E5
I want feel so guilty, to night 
                          A5
But some how, some where, something went wrong 
B5                           E5
With my complete honky tonk life 
 
REPEAT CHORUS 
 
TAGG: 
F#5          B5                   E5
Is ridding a honky tonk merry go round
