          A#                  F
Don't be fooled by big blue eyes,
                        A#
by a smile or a golden curl
                                      D#
'Cause she'll love you now and then break every vow
        A#          F7          A#
'Cause she's just a honky tonk girl

Chorus:
  F                               A#
Breaking hearts to her is just a way
of having fun
  F                                A#
She thinks every man's a fool and you're
another one
 D#                                     A#
She knows all the arts of love, she'll give
your heart a twirl
         A#          F7         A#
'Cause she's just a honky tonk girl

She can never change your ways
Though you'll give her all the world
She's had more than one or two and
each day there's someone new
Because she is just a honky-tonk girl

Chorus
