Ever since you left me I've done
A augmentedA
nothing but wrong.
E MajorE
Many nights I've
D MajorD       A augmentedA
laid awake and cried.

We once were happy; my heart was in a whirl.
  E MajorE     D MajorD     A augmentedA
But now, I'm a honky tonk girl.

🎸 Chorus:
  E7E7     D MajorD       A augmentedA
So turn that jukebox way up high
  E MajorE    D MajorD        A augmentedA
and fill my glass up while I cry.
   D MajorD            A augmentedA
I've lost everything in this world,

I just can't make a right with

But losin' him has made a fool of me.

So fill my glass up to the brim
E MajorE      D MajorD    A augmentedA
to lose my memory of him.

I've lost everything in this world,
