E
Got these calluses from all those nights
E
Spent playing a telecaster, till my fingers bled bud light
E
I got this scar in a beer bar brawl
E
Outside of Tuscaloosa, stitched it up in a bathroom stall
    A          D                              E
And I got this tattoo in the back of a pool room in east Tennessee
      B  Bb A    G  F# F          E
Oh, I got a long honky-tonk history


[Verse 2]
E
See this solid gold watch and chain
E
Took it off a Texas oil tycoon in a backroom poker game
E
Look at these holes in my tailgate
E
They're from Suzy Johnson's husband's snub nose 38
A                D                             E
Thank god he's a bad shot and I had that toolbox, between him and me
B     Bb A               G  F#  F          E
Right or wrong that's my honkey-tonk history


[Chorus 1]
  G
I love the smell of cigarette's
    A
And whiskey on a woman's breath
    E
The sound of outlaw music sets me free
G              A                E
Blame it on my honky-tonk history, oh


[Solo]
A E B Bb A G F# F E


[Verse 3]
E
I'm just like my daddy and my daddy's daddy
E
And his daddy before him
E
I'm just like my daddy, and his daddy's daddy
E
And his daddy before him


[Chorus 1]
  G
I love the smell of cigarette's
    A
And whiskey on a woman's breath
    E
The sound of outlaw music sets me free
C                   D              B  Bb A     G  F# F          E
Right or wrong just carrying on my honky-tonk, honky-tonk history
