Transcribed by DWdrummer67.
 
Tuning: Standard
 
          A                       D            Bm7
Now I'm just a bartender… and I don't like my work
        E                      A
But I don't mind the money at all
       A                      D           Bm7       E                            A
I see lots of sad faces… and lots of bad cases of folks with their backs to the wall
 
Chorus:
            A                       D      Bm7       E                    A
But I need four walls around me to hold my life… to keep me from going a-stray
        A                   D      Bm7       E                     A
And a honky-tonk angel to hold me tight… to keep me from slipping away
 
        A                           D            Bm7
I can light up your smokes… I can laugh at your jokes
        E                           A
I can watch you fall down on your knees
        A                         D        Bm7             E                      A
I can close down this bar… I can gas up my car. And I can pack up and mail in my key
 
Chorus:
            A                       D      Bm7       E                    A
But I need four walls around me to hold my life… to keep me from going a-stray
        A                   D      Bm7        E                     A
And a honky-tonk angel to hold me tight… to keep me from slipping away
 
Break:
A  D  Bm7  E  A
 
           A                           D         Bm7
Now, the smoke fills the air in this honkey-tonk bar
           E                            A
And I'm thinking 'bout where I'd rather be
        A                     D           Bm7              E                         A
But I burned all my bridges… sank all my ships, now I'm stranded at the edge of the sea
 
Chorus:
              A                       D       Bm7      E                    A
I still need four walls around me to hold my life… to keep me from going a-stray
              A                   D       Bm7            E                     D  A
I need some honky-tonk angels to hold me tight… that’ll keep me from slipping away…
