Bright [Bbm] lights and promises,
[Ebm] [Bb] a pocket [Ab] full of dreams
[Db] [Bbm] That's what they paid me [Eb] to be
[Ab]
[Gb] Gold
[Gbm] lamenting dimes,
[Db] I [Cm] am a [Bbm] hometown queen
[A] Honey, [Ab] would you [Fm] sing it just [Db] for me?
[Ab]
[Db] When [Bbm] I was good
[Ebm] Then [Ab] I was bad
[Db] I [Bbm]
never thought I'd [Ab] end up this way
[Gb] With no dreams [Gbm] to hide me
[Db] [Cm] Bright [Bbm] lights to guide me
[A] How long does [Ab] it take to make the [Db] grade?

[Em] Have [A] you got a light?

Ain't that [Bm] what it pays?
To [E]
keep in [A] sight
[G]
[Gm] Overused and much abuse
[D]
[A] Promises [Bm] of delight
[Bb]
Honey, [A] would you care to spend the [D] night?
[Bm] [Bb]
[Eb]
[Bb] Take a [Cm] little time
[Fm] Some memories [Bb] and wine
[Eb]
Loosen [Cm] up the sucker by [Bb] the bar
[Ab] And if he wants [Abm] to hold you
[Eb] [Dm] If he [Cm] wants to [Eb] know you
[B] Honey, [Bb] that's what you're [Eb]
here for
[B] [Bb] [Ab]
Until [Abm] all I see

out for me
