Introduction:
D
He's wrinkled and gray
G D
But he's still got the fire
A
And he sings on the stage
G D
Like a bird on a wire
Oh he'll pack 'em in
G D
Just like he always did
A G D
Oh everybody loves the honky tonk kid
He got his first guitar
G D
Well the honky tonk kid loves the honky tonk crowd
A G D
He picks them up when this world gets them down
G D A
But all the smoke and the neon keep his pain hid
G D
Oh nobody knows the honky tonk kid
