Honky Tonk Man Merle Haggard
This tab has been submitted under Clint Eastwood and Marty
Robbins, but it is a great song I had looked for and
couldn't find it because I did not realize they had done it,
until I watched the Clint Eastwood Movie the other day.
Anyway I thought I would put Merle's version up here for
those who did not know the others had done it. This is NOT
meant to be a replacement, or to challenge the accuracy of
the other tabs, they would be more likely to be accurate
than mine, Merle just does it in a different key than the
other two and since I had it tabbed before I realized the
other two were here, I thought I'd post it.
Merle Haggard
[C]I've never seen you [Em]look quite so sad
[F]I've never felt me [C]feel quite so bad
And [F]I know we bo[C]th feel that [Em]we have been [Am]had
I g[D7]uess we were just not that str[G]ong
I [F]lost my [C]woman and [Em]you lost your[Am] man
[F]Who knows who's r[C]ight and who's w[Em]rong
But I[F]'ve still got my[C] guitar and [Em]I've got a p[Am]lan
[F]Throw your a[C]rms around this [G]honky tonk ma[CF]n
Chorus:
Throw your [F]arms 'round this honky tonk m[C]an
And we'll [F]get through this night the best way we [F]can
It's the [F]best ol' pain [C]killer since [Em]hurtin beg[Am]an
Throw your [C]arms around this [G]honky tonk [C]man
I miss that woman and you miss him too
But there's not a hell of alot we can do
But cling to each other till the hurtin is through
But the hurt can only last just so long
You be my woman, I'll be your man
Even if just for a while
I still got my guitar and I've got a plan
Throw your arms around this honkytonk man
