HONKY TONK HEAVEN

 

Intro: G-C-D-G-C-D

 

G
Well, if Heaven has a smell I bet it’s

                                           C
Coffee, red wine and clove cigarettes it’s true.

             G
Well they’re up all night in smoke filled bars

                                                C
Angels in wranglers playin’ steel guitars, Well shoot!

D                  G
It’s a permanent vacation
C                     D
Bring on the lights & turn up the sound

C                            D
I wanna buy this whole place another round
G            C          D
If there’s a honky tonk heaven

G          C        D
Make me an angel in white

G            C          D       C     D
If there’s a honky tonk heaven alright

                            G
We better raise some hell tonight

There’s no need to worry you’ll know where you are
You’ll see satin, sequins, rhinestones & stars
Jesus and Buddha for fun they say
Will crash every single celestial soirée’
No need for an invitation
Bring on the lights & turn up the sound

I wanna buy the whole place a round

If there’s a honky tonk heaven
Make me an angel in white
If there’s a honky tonk heaven alright
We better raise some hell tonight

 

 

 

 

 

Bridge:
C                                             G
Somebody pinch me it all seems too good to be true

C                                          D
Pour me a glass of salvation hell, make it two

If there’s a honky tonk heaven
Make me an angel in white
If there’s a honky tonk heaven alright
We better raise some hell tonight
