        C             F                G                   C
Well, I walked into a rundown bar, the sign said a one man band.

       C                   F            G                  C
He was sittin' on top of a bar stool, a guitar held in his hand.

        F                            Em
And the lines he was singing brought memories ringin',

  Dm             G           C
I heard this old broken-down star.

         F                      Em             Am
Sing bad women and whiskey, you know they will get you,

     Dm           G            C            C
some day I'll get out of these bars.
[Verse 2]
        C                      F
Well, I sat there drinking, daydreaming and thinking

     G                  C
of a time not too long ago,

          C                   F
with iron bars all around me, grey walls that bound me,

    G                      C
the years that went by too slow.

      F                              Em
And a prayer that I whispered to the blue sky above me,

Dm           G          C
walking that big prison yard,

        F                      Em             Am
Was bad women and whiskey, you know they will get you,

     Dm           G            C
some day I'll get out of these bars.
[Chorus]
      F                     Em
Some day I'll get out, some day I'll get out,

      Dm            G          C
won't fight no more honky tonk wars.

     F                      Em           Am
Some day I'll get out, some day I'll get out,

     Dm           G            C
some day I'll get out of these bars.
[Interlude] | F | C | G | C | | C | [Verse 3]
        C                         F
Well, I paid for my drink, walked over to where

       G                    C
he was singing his lonesome song.

         C                        F
I said, "We're a lot alike, guitarman, you and I,

         G                   C
but your sentence is way too long.

      F                      Em
"Some day I'll get out" he began to shout

     Dm                 G        C
as I walked toward that open bar door.

               F                       Em             Am*
He said "Well, I'll find a song and it won't take too long

  Dm        G            C
until I get out of these bars.
[End-Chorus]
      F                     Em
Some day I'll get out, some day I'll get out,

      Dm            G          C
won't fight no more honky tonk wars.

     F                      Em           Am
Some day I'll get out, some day I'll get out,

     Dm           G            C
some day I'll get out of these bars.

      F                     Em
Some day I'll get out, some day I'll get out,

      Dm            G          C
won't fight no more honky tonk wars.

           F                  Em             Am*
Well, I'll find a song and it won't take too long

  Dm        G            C
until I get out of these bars.
[Outro] | F | C | G | C* ||
