Dim Lights, Thick Smoke (And Loud, Loud Music)
By Vern Gosdin
Dim [E]lights thick smoke and loud, loud [A]music
You'll never make a wife to a [B]home'lovin' [E]man
A [E]home and little children mean nothing to [A]you
A [E]house filled with love and a husband so [B]true
You'd [E]rather have a drink with the first guy you [A]meet
And the [E]only house you know is the [B]bar down the [E]street
Chorus:
Dim [E]lights thick smoke and loud, loud [A]music
Is the [E]only kind of life you'll ever under[B]stand
Dim [E]lights thick smoke and loud, loud [A]music
You'll [E]never make a wife to a [B]home'lovin' [E]man
Drinkin' and dancin' to a honky-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 feel sorry for you and your honky-tonk heart
Chorus
Change to Key of G
Chorus:
Dim [G]lights thick smoke and loud, loud [C]music
Is the [G]only kind of life you'll ever under[D]stand
Dim [G]lights thick smoke and loud, loud [C]music
You'll [G]never make a wife to a [D]home'lovin' [G]man
