Subject: If The Whole World Was A Honky-Tonk by George Strait

If The Whole World Was A Honky-Tonk
Performed by George Strait
>From Somewhere Down In Texas
Tabbed By Jordan Stephenson

Capo 1st Fret
Play around with the E's and E7's to see what sounds best.

(Chorus)
D
If the whole was a honky-tonk,
E E7
And it revolved around an old jukebox,
G A
We'd tell our troubles to the bar over cryin' steal guitars
Bm
And soon they'd all be gone.
A G
If you ask me what I thought
A
I'd say we'd be better off
D
If the whole was a honky-tonk.

(Verse 1)
D
You could smoke that cigarette,
F#7
Be politically incorrect,
G
Show off that red round your neck
A
Not hear a single soul object.

(Verse 2)
Wouldn't need no lawyers to decide,
Who is wrong and who is right,
No need for big expensive trials,
Brother we'd just step outside.

(Chorus)

(Verse 3)
Wouldn't have to pay no tax,
Just set a tip jar in the back,
If we ran low we'd pass the hat
I bet we'd all be in the black.
D F#7, G, A, D
If the whole was a honky-tonk.

(Bridge)
Bm
And if you're looking for love,
G
Someone to heal that broken heart
E E7
Hey buddy you'd be in luck
A
You wouldn't have to go that far

(Chorus)
G
Life would be a three-chord song
A
And the king would be George Jones
D
If the whole was a honky-tonk.
