INTRO: E D A E A

#1.
A                     D                 A
I won't stay home and cry tonight, like all the 

nights before.
E                                  D           A
I just learned that I don't really need you anymore.
                 D                    A
I found a little place downtown where guys like me 

can go.
                              E           A
And they've got bright lights and country music.

CHORUS:
       D                                        A
Bright lights and country music, a bottle and a glass.
A                                             E
Soon I'll be forgetting that there ever was a past.
         A         D            A
And when everybody asks me what helped me forget so fast.
                             E           A
I'll say those bright lights and country music.


INTERLUDE: A D A E A

#2.
A              D            A
A table by the bandstand, a bottle filled with wine.
E                                  D              A
Honky-tonks were made for men with women on their minds.
                     D              A
And nothing else can take away this loneliness of mine.
                               E           A
Quite like those bright lights and country music.

CHORUS:
       D                                        A
Bright lights and country music, a bottle and a glass.
A                                             E
Soon I'll be forgetting that there ever was a past.
         A         D            A
And when everybody asks me what helped me forget so fast.
                             E           A
I'll say those bright lights and country music.


OUTRO:
                           E           A
I love those bright lights and country music.
