Verse 1:
E MajorE
You struck me as the kind of man
         G# minorG#m D#mD#m
I'd love and lose alone
G# minorG#m
A augmentedA ramblin' man with a beat-up plan
         E MajorE
Dreams of hitting gold
E MajorE
But you stole me heart playing your guitar
         A augmentedA
You sang me to my vows
  G# minorG#m
So when you said you were settling in
          E MajorE
I didn't listen my doubts

Chorus:
E MajorE
Cause the honky-tonks

And the cowboy songs
           A augmentedA
Will always call your name
      G# minorG#m  B7B7
No, you'll never love anything as much

E MajorE
So it was good at first

You found some steady work
           G# minorG#m
You were happy as can be
D#mD#m    G# minorG#m
But as the babies grew
D#mD#m   G# minorG#m
I saw us tire you
              E MajorE
The simple life left you in need
E MajorE
Well I would cook and clean

I tried everything
         A augmentedA
To keep you as my own
    G# minorG#m
Oh but from the start
               D#mD#m
I should have listened to my heart
       G# minorG#m      E MajorE
Cause I could never keep you home

Cause the honky-tonks

E MajorE
So when it came

The day you went away
        G# minorG#m
I didn't shed a tear
           D#mD#m
Instead I kissed your lips
           B7B7
And told my heart to quit
    G# minorG#m      E MajorE
Holding on just out of fear
E MajorE
It ain't you and me

You were meant to be
          A augmentedA
On the highway all alone
    G# minorG#m
Singing songs about
          B7B7
The woman that you lost
    G# minorG#m       E MajorE
All for nothing but the road

Chorus:
E MajorE
Cause the honky-tonks

And the cowboy songs
           A augmentedA
Will always call your name
      B7B7
Oh, you'll never love anything as much
  G# minorG#m          E MajorE
As bright lights and the fame

Reprise:
      G# minorG#m  D#mD#m   B7B7
Oh, you'll never love anything as much
  G# minorG#m          E MajorE
As bright lights and the fame
