Chorus:
G C G
Honky tonkers don’t cry, we ain’t allowed
G D
We have to have a good time even when we feel down
G C G
And if a tear should fall, it’s gonna land on a smile
G D G G7
Always having a ball, honky tonkers don’t cry
C G (C-G) C G (C-G)
Cryin in a beer is commonplace around here
C G A7 D
But when the sun goes down, nobody’s wearing a frown
G C G
That’s the life that we live every night
G D G
That’s the way that it is, honky tonkers don’t cry
Fiddle break
Piano break
Guitar break
Steel break
Guitar break
C G (C-G) C G (C-G)
Cryin in a beer is commonplace around here
C G A7 D
But when the sun goes down, nobody’s wearing a frown
G C G
That’s the life that we live every night
G D G
That’s the way that it is, honky tonkers don’t cry
