(G)Spent a long long evening in a low down honky tonk bar
Pulled a low down lady with a long black honky tonk car
I (C)asked no questions, got no lies,
I walked off with her, I (Bb)didn't want any (G)ties
And I (Bb)knew it wasn't (G)right 
But (D)everybody has to (F)some(D)times (C)break (Bb)the (G)rules. (D)
       
Took me (G)down on the highway doin' too many miles an hour
By that way she motor-talked we might have made the Eiffel Tower.
She (C)stopped her motor by her own front door,
I knew she'd done it so (Bb)many times be(G)fore
And I was (Bb)offered the (G)floor.
But (D)everybody has to (F)some(D)times (C)break (Bb)the (G)rules. (D)
                                             
I (G)woke up next morning feeling kind of up and down
Cos I did not know if I was in or out of town                                
Then I (C)saw the face from the night before
Purse was empty and (Bb)lying there on the (G)floor
But (Bb)like I told you be(G)fore
But (D)everybody has to (F)some(D)times (C)break (Bb)the (G)rules. (D)

Spent a (G)low down evening sitting high on a honky tonk stool.
And I spent my money like a low down honky tonk fool.
But (D)everybody has to (F)some(D)times (C)break (Bb)the (G)rules. (D)
But everybody has to (F)some(D)times (C)break (Bb)the (G)rules. (D) 
But everybody has to (Bb)sometimes (C)break the (G)rules
