Just a bargain.
[A] [D] I don't like [Bm] my work.
[E] But I don't mind the money [A] at all.
[E] [A] I've seen lots of sad faces.
[D] And lots of [Bm] bad.
[E] The folks with their back to [A] the wall.
[E] Like us.
And I [A] need four walls around me [D] to hold [Bm] my life.
[E] To keep me from going [A] hay-trade.
[E] [A] And a honky-tonk angel [D] to hold me tight.
To [E] keep me from slipping [A]
away.
[E] [A] I can fly low.
[D] I can laugh at [Bm] your jokes.
[E] I can watch you fall down on [A] your knees.
[E] [A] I can move down this far.
[D] I can gas [Bm] up my car.
[E] I can pack up and build in [A] my keys.
[E] [A] But I need four walls around me [D] to hold [Bm] my life.
[D] [E] To keep me from going [A] hay-trade.
[E] And [A] a honky-tonk [D] angel to [Bm] hold me tight.
[E] To keep me from slipping [A]
away.

[D] [A]
[A] Well, [D]
[Bm] [B]
[A]
[E] [A] the smoke fills the air [D] in this honky [Bm]-tonk bar.
[E] And I'm thinking about where I'd rather [A]
[E] be.
[A] But I'm afraid.
[D] I've sank all [Bm] my [D] ships.
[E] Now I'm stranded at the end [A] of the sea.
[E] I still [A] need four walls around [D] me to hold [Bm] my life.
[E] To keep me from going [A] hay-trade.
[E] [A] And a honky-tonk angel [D] to [Bm] hold me tight.
[E] To keep me from slipping [A] away.
[E] I need a honky [A]-tonk angel [D] to hold [Bm] me tight.
[E] To keep me from slipping [D] away. [A] Yeah!
