[Intro] G C G G C G [Verse]
G                      G7
Well, it won't be long now

 C                       G
Untill that old sun goes down

                                       D7
And darkness helps me hide my shameful tears

   G               G7
My wife works all night long

       C                G
For a man who's halfway gone

                         D7             G
She's the barmaid in the honky-tonk downstairs
[Interlude] G A B C Walk up to C [Chorus]
       C
It's a shame she wears the name

     G
Of a man who's locked and chained

            C        G                      D7
To a bottle that's destroying all hopes and cares

       G
To the men with hungry eyes

    C                   G
She works and hides her pride

                         D7             G
She's the barmaid in the honky-tonk downstairs
[Solo] G G G7 C G G D G G A B C Walk up to C [Chorus]
       C
It's a shame she wears the name

     G
Of a man who's locked and chained

            C        G                      D7
To a bottle that's destroying all hopes and cares

       G
To the men with hungry eyes

    C                   G
She works and hides her pride

                         D7             G       G E F#     Walk up to G
She's the barmaid in the honky-tonk downstairs

          G              D7             C     G
She's the barmaid in the honky-tonk downstairs
End on G
