Chorus 1:
E E7 A
Them honky tonks don’t twang the way they used to
E F# B
And sawdust floor with two swinging doors and jukebox they’re all but gone
E E7 A
And all I need to hear is one good Buck Owens song
A E B E
Tell me where did all them honky tonks and good ol’ dancehalls gone
B E
I guess this might sound quite familiar
A E F# B
But I can’t find a place to lay my head or ease my wounded soul
A B E A
I tell you lately I’ve been thinking that I need a new place for drinkin’
A B E
Don’t stop me now this cowboy’s on a roll
Chorus 2:
Them honky tonks don’t twang the way they used to
And sawdust floor with two swinging doors and jukebox they’re all but gone
And all I need to hear is one good Hank Thompson song
Tell me where did all them honky tonks and good ol’ dancehalls gone
Steel solo
What would Bob Wills say if he’d been here
To see the strobe light, smoke machine, country disco growing all around the land
I tell you it would make me feel just right, Cheatham St. Warehouse on a Monday night
For a Lone star longneck and a western swinging band
