C G

They got married in a honky tonk bar

Am F

Said their vows on a 6 string steel guitar

Am G

He's been in love since the moment he saw her

F G

All those years ago at the livestock show

C G

He's just a rodeo clown

Am F

He ain't much, just the biggest damn fool in town

Am G

Now, His best man couldn't come around

F G

cause he died a month ago down in Mexico

F G

Well, God bless the fools

Am C

For breaking all the rules

F G

and fighting over their bar stools

C G Am F Am G F G

And getting married in a honky tonk bar

C G

They honeymooned in a pick up truck

Am F

Threw some hay in the bed so that might stay up all night

Am G

and laugh with the stars and the moonlight

F G

And all them U.F.O.'s with their crazy light shows

C G

He left his three legged dog at home

Am F

And let the cows loose so they could roam

Am G

We don't know if they'll ever come home

F G

but that's O.K. you see, we think they ought to go free by now

F G

God bless the fools

Am C

For screwing up all the rules

F G

and hanging on to their bar stools

Bb F C G Dm Am G

And getting married in a honky tonk bar

First verse (with "cause he died hard and slow down in Mexico")

F G

Well, God bless us fools

Am C

For stumbling all over your rules

F G

and falling off our bar stools

Bb F C G

And getting married in a honky tonk bar

Bb F C G

Getting married in a honky tonk bar
