Intro :
E F#m7 E/G#
ANow I'm just a barA7tender
And I Ddon't like my Bm7work
But I dEon't mind the money at AallE F#m7 E/G#
I see lAots of sad fA7aces
And lDots of bad Bm7cases
Of Efolks with their backs to the wAallE F#m7 E/G#
But I need Afour walls aA7round me to Dhold my Bm7life
To Ekeep me from going a-AstraEy F#m7 E/G#
And a Ahonky-tonk anA7gel to hDold me tightBm7
To Ekeep me from slipping AawayE F#m7 E/G#
I can lAight up your A7smokes
I can lDaugh at your Bm7jokes
I can wEatch you fall down on your AkneesE F#m7 E/G#
I can cAlose down this A7bar
I can gDas up myBm7 car
I can pEack up and mail in my AkeyE F#m7 E/G#
But I need Afour walls aA7round me to Dhold my Bm7life
To Ekeep me from going a-AstraEy F#m7 E/G#
And a Ahonky-tonk anA7gel to hDold me tightBm7
To Ekeep me from slipping AawayE F#m7 E/G#
(Instrumental)
Now, the Asmoke fills the A7air
In this Dhonky-tonk bBm7ar
And I'm tEhinking 'bout where I'd rather Abe E F#m7 E/G#
But I bAurned all my bA7ridges
I sDank all my sBm7hips
And I'm sEtranded at the edge of the AseaE F#m7 E/G#
But I need Afour walls aA7round me to Dhold my Bm7life
To Ekeep me from going a-AstraEy F#m7 E/G#
And a Ahonky-tonk anA7gel to hDold me tightBm7
To Ekeep me from slipping Aaway E F#m7 E/G#
