Honky Tonk Woman

Rolling Stones (Jagger/Richards)
[Intro]

G x4
 
[Verse]

G                                 C
I met a gin-soaked barroom queen in Memphis

        G             A            D
She tried to take me upstairs for a ride

   G                                C
She had to heave me right across her shoulders

         G                 D                G
‘cause I just can't seem to drink you off my mind

 
[Chorus]

        G         D         G 
She’s a Ho  -    nky-tonk  woman

G               D                     G
Gimmie, gimmie, gimmie those honky-tonk blues

 
[Verse]

G                        C
I layed a divorcee in New York City

    G           A            D
I had to put up some kind of a fight

G                                C
The lady then she covered me with roses

      G             D                G
She blew my nose and then she blew my mind

 
[Chorus]

        G         D         G 
She’s a Ho  -    nky-tonk  woman

G               D                     G
Gimmie, gimmie, gimmie those honky-tonk blues
