G                                   D7 
Honky tonk memories a cheating song melody 

                                                           G 
It takes me back to you and me and what it used to be back then 

                                                    D7 
A walking through the swinging doors and dancing on hardwood floors 

                                                        G 
I tipped the band to play one more I wish we had it all again 


    C                              G 
Iâ??m sitting here and thinking dear why I didnâ??t marry you 

A7                                D7 
I wonder if youâ??re happy with the one who had sense enough to 

  G                                         D7 
A pin ball going ding-a-ling chug-a-lugging was the thing 

                                                           G 
Singing songs we all could sing wish that I could bring it back 
  

    C                              G 
Iâ??m sitting here and thinking dear why I didnâ??t marry you 

A7                                D7 
I wonder if youâ??re happy with the one who had sense enough to 

G                                        D7 
Dancing until closing time we could read each others mind 

                                                    G 
And I could search and never find another time like that 


G                                   D7 
Honky tonk memories a cheating song melody 

                                                           G 
It takes me back to you and me and what it used to be back then 

                                                    D7 
A walking through the swinging doors and dancing on hardwood floors 

                                                        G 
I tipped the band to play one more I wish we had it all again
