Standard (EADGBE)
Well I've never seen you look quite so sad
And I've never felt me feel quite so bad
And I know we both feel that we had been had
Well I guess they were just not that strong
I lost my woman and you lost your man
And who knows who's right or who's wrong
But I've got my guitar and I've got a plan
Throw your arms 'round this honkytonk man
Throw your arms 'round this honkytonk man
And we'll get through this night the best way we can
It's the best old pain killer since hurtin' began
Throw your arms 'round this honkytonk man
I miss that woman and you miss him too
There's not a hell of a lot we can do
But cling to each other 'till the hurtin' is through
But the hurt can only last just so long
You be my woman and I'll be your man
Even if just for a while
I've still got my guitar and I've got a plan
Throw your arms 'round this honkytonk man
Throw your arms 'round this honkytonk man
And we'll get through this night the best way we can
It's the best old pain killer since hurtin' began
Throw your arms 'round this honkytonk man
Throw your arms 'round this honkytonk man
