The Honky Tonks Are Calling Me Again
Recorded by Billy Walker
written by Ray Pennington
G C
Checkered table cloths homemade ashtrays and neon lights
G D7
Advertisements that light up the night
G
Loud music smoke and laughter
C
Make me feel like a different man
G D7 C G
And the honky tonks are calling me a-gain
C G
Well the jukebox is playing and everyone is singing
D7
Songs of dreams that have no end
C G
Life is just an illusion there in the confusion
D7 C G
And the honky tonks are calling me a-gain
C
Lord I’ve tried to break away to a better kind of life
G D7
Oh but a good woman’s love can only hold me for a while
G
Yes the church bells ring on Sunday
C
Oh but that old Devil he just grins
G D7 C G
And the honky tonks are calling me a-gain
