I met a gin-soaked barroom queen in Memphis  G   C
She tried to take me upstairs for a ride   G   A   D
She had to heave me right across her shoulders   G   C
‘cause I just can’t seem to drink her off my mind   G   D   G

She’s a Ho  –    nky-tonk  woman  G   D   G
Gimmie, gimmie, gimmie those honky-tonk blues  G   D   G

I layed divorcee in New York City   G   C
I had to put up some kind of a fight   G   A   D
The lady then she covered me with roses  G   C
She blew my nose and then she blew my mind   G   D   G
