[Intro]
D  A7  D  G D


[Verse 1]
          D
There's a honky tonk
in this town
          G
That they call the
        D
loser's lounge
And I'm a charted
A7              D
member, you can say
D
Since love has
turned me down
           G
Nothing to do but
      D
hang around
And listen to all the
A7              D
fools who congregate

[Chorus]
G
Life is full
of heartbreak
      D
for a poor boy
'Cause a bank roll
can turn his
              A7
woman's head around
         D
Ain't no use to try
and run away or to
G               D
move to another town
'Cause anywhere a
poor boy
A7
goes there's a
 loser's
D
lounge
