If everything that goes on in this place was ever known 

     G7                          F                   C 
Well I hope I'm in Alaska just a little southeast of Nome 

C                                       F 
Cause the one I love would snap my neck just like a piece of chalk 

       G7                                           C 
If the walls in this old Honky Tonk ever learned to talk 




C                F            C 
They're watching me  cheat on you 
  
C                                                G7 
They hear everything I say they see everything I do

They know every time I've called and said I'm working late 

     G7                            F               C 
They know enough to turn my baby's love right into hate 

C                                   F 
It scares me half to death to think how gone my baby'd be 

       G7                                              C

They're watching me  cheat on you

You could bury me beneath these hardwood floors where losers walk
