Dim Lights Thick Smoke*

     CHORUS:
     [     1                                  4        ]
     [ Dim lights, thick smoke, and loud loud music    ]
     [        1                                  5     ]
     [ Is the only kind of life you'll ever understand ]
     [     1                                  4        ]
     [ Dim lights, thick smoke, and loud loud music    ]
     [        1                      5           1     ]
     [ You'll never make a wife to a home loving man   ]

       1                                        4
     A home and little children mean nothing to you
       1                                       5
     A house filled with love and a husband so true
           1                                          4
     You'd rather have a drink with the first man you meet
             1                         5             1
     And the only home you know is the club down the street

     Chorus

     A' dancing and drinking to a honkey-tonk band
     Is the only kind of life you'll ever understand
     Go on and have your fun, you think you've played it smart
     I'm sorry for you and your honkey-tonk heart

     Chorus
