The Honky Tonk Truth

	  		Capo II Fret 



I'm the (A) life of the party, baby since you said good(E)bye 
Just ask old Joe, he knows I'm here every (A) night 
And that good old boy in the mirror, lookin' round for (E) you 
It aint' me, and that's the honky tonk (A) truth 

That's the honky tonk (F#) truth, cross my broken heart (F#)(F) 
I'll put my (E) right hand here on this beer 
And swear on this (A) bar 
I ain't (F#) thinkin', I ain't drinkin', I ain't cryin' 
I ain't moanin' the (B) blues 
I wouldn't lie to (E) you 
That's the honky tonk (A) truth 

Fiddle Solo 

Don't (A) think I'll come crawling back, cause I don't (E) miss you 
If you walked up, puckered up, girl I wouldn't bother to (A) kiss you 
That washed up, broke down fool hanging out on that (E) stool 
It ain't me, and that's the honky tonk (A) truth 

That's the honky tonk (F#) truth, cross my broken heart (F#)(F) 
I'll put my (E) right hand here on this beer 
And swear on this (A) bar 
I ain't (F#) thinkin', I ain't drinkin', I ain't cryin' 
I ain't moanin' the (B) blues 
I wouldn't lie to (E) you 
That's the honky tonk (A) truth 

Solo 

That's the honky tonk (F#) truth, cross my broken heart (F#)(F) 
I'll put my (E) right hand here on this beer 
And swear on this (A) bar 
I ain't (F#) thinkin', I ain't drinkin', I ain't cryin' 
I ain't moanin' the (B) blues 
I wouldn't lie to (E) you 
That's the honky tonk (A) truth 

I ain't (F#) thinkin', I ain't drinkin', I ain't cryin' 
I ain't moanin' the (B) blues 
I wouldn't lie to (E) you 
That's the honky tonk (A) truth
