Honky Tonk Masquerade — Joe Ely
Chords and lyrics for Honky Tonk Masquerade by Joe Ely (key of G).
Verse
You [G]sure look [C]fine [G]tonight, [C]in the beer [Em]sign [Am]light,
[D]Why did you seem surprised, when I [G]saw through [C/G]your [G]disguise,
All your [C]friends were [G][G7]there and [C]no one [G/B]had a [A][Am]care,
[D]They all just [Am7]looked [D7]away in this [D6]Honky Tonk [Gmaj7][Em]Masquerade.[Eb]
You [D]should have known I knew all [G][Bm][Em]along[Eb]
That [D]I could see through you right or [G][Bm][Em]wrong[Eb]
I [D]didn't need a clue, I didn't [G]even[Abdim7/Gb] have to [Em]ask[G/D]
You [A]saw your own [A7]reflection in the [D]glass
I'd [G]like to [C]see you [G]home, but I [C]know you're [Bm]not [G6][Am]alone
You [D7]seem to [Am7]fit right [D]in, as you [G]tell me [C]where you've [G]been[C/G]
You [D7]say there's [G]not [C]that much to [G]tell but I [C]know you[G/B] oh too [Am]well
Your [D]eyes give you away in this Honky Tonk [G][Gmaj7]Masquerade[Eb][Em]
You [D]should have known I knew all [Gmaj7][Em]along[Eb]
That [D]I could see through you right or [G][Bm][Em]wrong[Eb]
I [D]didn't need a clue, I didn't [G]even [D/F#]have to [Em]ask[G/D]
You [A]saw your own reflection in the [D]glass
You [G]sure look [C6]fine [G]tonight, they're [C]turning[C#dim7/B] out the [Am]lights
Why [D]did you hold my sleeve when I [G]said I [C6]had to [G]leave
I hoped it [C]never [G]showed, but [C]that's the [Em]way it [Am]goes[Am7]
As the [D7]lights begin to fade on this Honky Tonk [G]Masquerade.
