Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Well, I'm a honky tonk man
and I can't seem to stop
I love to [G]give the girls a whirl
to the music of an old jukebox
[D]But when my money's all gon[A]e,
I'm on the telephone hollering
[D]"Hey, hey mama,
can your [A]daddy come [D]home?"

[Verse 2]
[D]
Well, I'm living fast and [A]dangerously
But [G]I've got plenty of company
[D]When the moon comes up
and [A]the sun goes down
Well, [G]that's when I wanna see
the lights down town
[D]

[Verse 3]
'Cause I'm a honky tonk man
and I can't seem to stop
I love to [G]give the girls a whirl to the
music of an old juke[D]box
When my money's all [A]gone,
I'm on the telephone hollering
[D]"Hey, hey mama,
can your [A]daddy come [D]home?"

[Interlude 1]
[D][G][D]
[A][D][A][D]

[Verse 4]
It takes a pretty little [D]girl and [A]a jug of wine
Well, [G]that's what it takes to
make a honky tonk [D]time
With the jukebox moaning
those [A]honky tonk sounds
Well, [G]that's when I wanna
lay my money down
[D]

[Verse 5]
'Cause I'm a honky tonk man
and I can't seem to stop
I love to [G]give the girls a whirl
to the music of an old jukebox
[D]But when my money's all gon[A]e,
I'm on the telephone hollering
[D]"Hey, hey mama,
can your [A]daddy come [D]home?"
