I met a gin-soaked, bar-room queen in Memphis
      G              A               D  G  D  G
She tried to take me upstairs for a ride
     G                                 C
She had to heave me right across her shoulder
          G                   D               G
'Cause I just can't seem to drink you off my mind.

G         G   D            G
  It's a ho-o-o-onky tonk women

Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues.

I had to put up some kind of a fight.
     G                           C
The lady then she covered me in roses,
      G                D               G
She blew my nose and then she blew my mind.

G         G   D            G
  It's a ho-o-o-onky tonk women

Gimme, gimme, gimme the honky tonk blues.
