Honkytonk U (Keith Toby)

		This is a good one for all you rhythm players:  
You have to listen to get it right. If you give a quick lift and play open strings  
the D and Cadd9 in the intro and the E and D on the outro it sounds pretty good, to me atleast.  
Standard Tuning  
 
Intro strumming is D, Cadd9, G, D  
 
Verse 1  
 D Cadd9 G D  
My Grandmother owned a night club on the Arkansas Oklahoma line  
 A7  
Mama put me on a Greyhound and I went to stay with her in the summertime  
 G Cadd9 G  
 D  
I'd box up those empty longnecks and stack 'em in the back and make a hand  
 Cadd9 G  
D  
Then at night she'd let me sneak out of the kitchen and sit in with the band  
 
Verse 2  
 Cadd9 G  
 D  
Yes I have sacked some quartebacks and broke my share of bones along the way  
 A7  
I knew it wouldn't last forever semi-pro always means semi-payed  
 G Cadd9 G  
 D  
I started climbin' drillin' rigs I'm oil field trash and proud as I can be  
 Cadd9 G D  
Then I took my songs and guitar and sang 'em to a man from Tennessee  
 
Chorus  
 G Cadd9 G  
 D  
I've played every beer joint tavern from New York City out to Pasadena  
 A7  
Every corn dog fair and rodeo and sold out every basketball arena  
 D Cadd9 G D  
Like to get down with my boys in Afghanistan and Bahgdad City too  
 D F Cadd9 G  
 D  
I Am a red, white, and blue blood graduate of Honkytonk U  
 
Repeat Intro strummming  
 
Verse 3  
 E D A  
A star can't burn forever and the brightest ones will someday loose their  
E B7  
shine. But the glass won't ever be half empty in my optimistic mind  
 A D A  
 E  
I'll still have a song to sing and a band to turn it up and play it loud  
 D A E  
As long as there's a bar room with a corner stage and a honkytonk crowd  
 
Chorus  
 A D A  
 E  
I've played every beer joint tavern from New York City out o Pasadena  
 B7  
Every corn dog fair and rodeo and sold out every basketball arena  
 E D A E  
Like to get down with my boys in Afghanistan and Bahgdad City too  
 E G D A  
 E  
Son I'm a red, white, and blue blood graduate of Honkytonk U  
 E G D  
 E  
That's right a red, white and blue blood graduate of Honkytonk U  
 
Then finish strum out with E, D, A, E  
 
Have Fun with it!!
