Chords

[Verse 1]
D
Radio's on, feelin' alright

E7
Cruisin' the strip on a Saturday night

A7
I smile and I wave and I hide all my pain

        G                          D
but the sign on my bumper gives me away
[Chorus]
G              A      D
[tab]   G                    D
If you need a friend to get through the night

  G                    D
A toot on your horn, a flash of your brights

G              A      D
Honk if you're lonely tonight
[Verse 2]
D
I know a honky-tonk where we can go

E7
A booth in the back with the lights way down low

A7
The jukebox is playing a sad melody

    G                              D
for heart-broken lovers like you and me

      D
We'll laugh and we'll flirt and we'll dance every dance

      E7
and before the night's over, we'll make romance

     A7
The morning will find us with a smile on our face

     G                               D
and we'll be together in a lover's embrace
[Chorus]
G              A      D
Honk if you're lonely tonight

G                       D
If you need a friend to get through the night

G                      D
A toot on your horn, a flash of your brights

G              A      D
Honk if you're lonely tonight

[Verse 3]
  D
I know it seems sad to be so damn blue

            E7
but there's always the chance that you'll meet someone new

  A7
I know that somewhere waiting for me

     G                                  D
is a sad lonely lover with a bumper that reads
[Chorus]
G              A      D
Honk if you're lonely tonight

G                       D
If you need a friend to get through the night

G                      D
A toot on your horn, a flash of your brights

G              A      D
Honk if you're lonely tonight

G              A      D
Honk if you're lonely tonight

G              A      D
Honk if you're lonely tonight
