Honky tonk woman

A D D7 D
I met a gin-soaked bar-room queen in Memphis.
A E E7 E
She tried to take me upstairs for a ride.
A D D7 D
She had to heave me right across her shoulder,

`cause I just can't seem to drink you off my mind.


A E A
It's a hohohohohonky tonk woman.
A E A
Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues.

I played a divorcee in New York City.
A E E7 E
I had to put up some kind of a fight.
A D D7 D
The lady then, she covered me with roses,
A E A
she blew my nose and then she blew my mind.
