Bartenders Blues

E  F#m7 E/G#
A                 A7
Now I'm just a bartender
            D             Bm7
And I don't like my work
             E                      A   E  F#m7 E/G#
But I don't mind the money at all
             A           A7
I see lots of sad faces
           D          Bm7
And lots of bad cases
         E                              A   E  F#m7 E/G#
Of folks with their backs to the wall

                 A           A7          D       Bm7
But I need four walls around me to hold my life
               E                    A   E  F#m7 E/G#
To keep me from going a-stray
                  A            A7      D            Bm7
And a honky-tonk angel to hold me tight
               E                     A    E  F#m7 E/G#
To keep me from slipping away
             A            A7
I can light up your smokes
             D            Bm7
I can laugh at your jokes
             E                          A    E  F#m7 E/G#
I can watch you fall down on your knees
             A              A7
I can close down this bar
             D       Bm7
I can gas up my car
             E                     A   E  F#m7 E/G#
I can pack up and mail in my key

               A               A7
Now, the smoke fills the air
              D           Bm7
In this honky-tonk bar
               E                              A  E  F#m7 E/G#
And I'm thinking 'bout where I'd rather be
             A             A7
But I burned all my bridges
         D           Bm7
I sank all my ships
               E                          A  E  F#m7 E/G#
And I'm stranded at the edge of the sea
