 Intro: G D Dsus C
 G
 Well the day it ends when the sun comes up
     D                        C
 and starts when the sun goes down.
 G                         
 Out on the back roads and on the back streets 
          D                C
 of every farm and factory town.
 Em                    D
 There in the world of weekly wage,
 G                          C
 there's always a place out there, 
         G             D             C            D            D
 and the names and the faces are the same----everywhere.
 
 Chorus:
 	 G   		      D      C
 Well the room is full, it's a Friday night, 
    G           D            C
 we all want to hear "Louie, Louie" 
 	    G                    D         C
 It's been a long, hard day and a long hard life, 
     G		   D		   C
 and this is how we make it through it.
        Em		    D	  
 It's a blue collar place, a red blooded crowd, 
   G                     C
 tonight everything's all right,
    G     D    C   pause
 In honky-tonk Amer-----ica.
 
 
 2x G D Dsus C
 	  G						
 There's a flashing sign on a rain soaked street, 
 D     			  C
 that lights up just about dark.
   G          
 A welcome beakon on a lost highway 
             D                          C
 when you're weary and when you've lost heart.
 Em             D
 Never say it's lonelyness,
      G			     C
 it's only the drinks and the band,
     G		     D       C 
 but something brings us back here again,
     D
 and again.
 
 Chorus: 
 	 G		      D	     C
 Well the room is full, it's a Friday night.
    G	       D           C
 We all want to hear "Proud Mary."
             G                   D         C
 It's been a long hard day and a long hard life,
       G           D          C 
 We've all got our crosses to carry.
        Em                   D
 It's a blue collar place, a red blooded crowd, 
   G                      C
 Tonight everything is all right, 
    G     D    C   PAUSE
 In honky-tonk Amer-----ica.
 
 1x G D Dsus C 
 Em            D
 We talk about freedom alright,
     G	             C
 But maybe some other time,
 Em      C		    D	  
 Tonight everybody's feeling fine-----------.

 	    G	      D		C
 It's been a long hard day and a long hard life,
        G             D          C
 Monday morning we'll all do our duty.
        Em		    D
 It's a blue collar place, a red blooded crowd,
   G                     C
