A                                  D
She's in some honky tonk tonight I know

A     E                                  A
She's dancing where the music's loud and lights are low

A                                     D
She's dancing with some stranger in a club downtown

D      E                                                 A
And as long as there's a honky tonk, she'll never settle down
[Chorus]
A                            D
So close up the honky tonks, lock all the doors

E                                     A
Don't let the one I love go there any more

A                                        D
Close up the honky tonks, throw away the key

D    E                                      A
Then maybe the one I love will come back to me
[Instruments==Electric Guitar] A A E E E E A A A A D D E E A A [Verse 2]
A                         D
I wish I had the power to turn back the time

D   E                             A
And live again the hours when she was all mine

A                                            D
'Cause it hurts to see her running with that crowd downtown

D      E                                                 A
And as long as there's a honky tonk, she'll never settle down
[Chorus]
A                            D
So close up the honky tonks, lock all the doors

E                                     A
Don't let the one I love go there any more

A                         D
Close up the honky tonks, throw away the key

D    E                                      A
Then maybe the one I love will come back to me

D    E                         D            D   A  A
Then maybe the one I love will come back to me
