{Intro} 
  G5 
1.Beneath this neon haze here in this honky tonk 

  I tell everyone who&#039;ll listen I don&#039;t miss her being gone 
  C5 
  I&#039;ve got a big smile on my face that&#039;s all they see 
  G5                                        D5             G5 
  Guess there ain&#039;t no limit to what some people will believe 
 

    C5 
C.I say I&#039;ve burned her memory 
   G5 
  But I&#039;m just blowin&#039; smoke 
   C5 
  There&#039;s embers in the ashes 
   D5 
  That haven&#039;t yet grown cold 
   C5 
  In the darkness here I hide a tear 
   G5                C5 
  Hoping it don&#039;t show 
   G5                                     D5 
  Well I say I burned her memory but I know 
                     G5 
  I&#039;m just blowin&#039; smoke 
 
2.I don&#039;t want to face the truth that I&#039;m still in love with her 

  So I tell &#039;em she&#039;s just history as far as I&#039;m concerned 

  Got over her the minute that she walked out the door 

  I just look &#039;em in the eye and lie that&#039;s what honky-tonks are for 
 
C. 
 

           C5 
B.I can fool &#039;em one I can fool &#039;em all 
     D5 
  I play the part so well 
          C5 
  I&#039;d give all I ever owned 
             D5 
  If I could only fool myself 
 
C.
