Honey Won't You Open That Door Written by Mel Tillis
Chorus:
(C) Honey, honey, honey won't you open that (G7) door,
This is your sweet daddy, don't you love me no more,
It's cold outside, let me sleep on the floor,
Honey won't you open that (C) door.
First verse,
(C) I honkytonked around Dallas,
I got in a (C7) poker (F) game,
Somebody must-a been a (C) cheatin',
I (D7) lost everything but my (G7) name,
Well I (C) walked half way to Memphis,
I finally (C7) got back (F) home,
But I'd been better off (C) where I was,
'Cause here's where (G7) things went (C) wrong.
Repeat chorus:
Second verse:
(C) I went right down to see old Bob,
I thought he (C7) was my (F) friend,
The landlord said that (C) Bob's not here,
The (D7) police done hauled him (G7) in,
I (C) ran right back to little honey's house,
I got me a (C7) rockin' (F) chair,
Now Honey if you don't (C) open that door,
I'm gonna rock on (G7) away from (C) here.
Repeat chorus:
Repeat chorus again:
Tag: (C) Honey, honey, honey, honey,
Now honey won't you (G7) open that (C) door.
