Burnin The Honky Tonks Down

E

[Chorus]
      E
She's burnin' the honky tonks down.
                        B7
Burnin' the honky tonks down.
E                     A7
Smoke's been a risin' all over town,
      E           B7          E
She's burnin' the honky tonks down.

[Chorus]
      E
She's burnin' the honky tonks down.
                       B7
She caught me runnin' around.
        E                              A7
She was dancin' in the ashes when they caught her with them matches,
      E           B7          E
She's burnin' the honky tonks down.

[Verse]
           E
Well she's burnin' the honky tonks down,
                               B7
I tried but I couldn't put 'em out.
       E                               A7
Did my best to save the whisky but the flame's just to risky,
      E           B7          E
She's burnin' the honky tonks down.

[Chorus]
      E
She's burnin' the honky tonks down,
                                  B7
She couldn't stop that honky tonk sound.
       E                              A7
It was sizzlin' like a griddle when I ran out with my fiddle,
      E           B7          E
She's burnin' the honky tonks down.

[Chorus]
      E
She's burnin' the honky tonks down,
                             B7
She's down in the jail house now.
         E                   A7
Said she felt no remorse for breakin' out that torch,
      E           B7          E
She's burnin' the honky tonks down.

                        B7
Burnin' the honky tonks down.
E                     A7
Smoke's been a risin' all over town,
      E           B7          E
She's burnin' the honky tonks down.
