[Verse 1]
E A E
I won't stay home and cry tonight like every night before
B7 A E
I've just learned that I don't really need you anymore
A E
I found a little place downtown where girls like me can go
B7 E E
And they've got bright lights and country music
[Chorus]
A E
Bright lights and country music a bottle and a glass
F#7 B7
Soon I'll be forgetting that there ever was a past
E A E
And when everybody asks me just how I forget so fast
B7 E
I'll say bright lights and country music
[Interlude]

[Verse 2]
E A E
A table by the bandstand a bottle filled with wine
B7 A E
Honky tonks were made for Girls with lovin' on their minds
A E
Nothing else can take away this loneliness of mine
B7 E
Quite like bright lights and country music
[Chorus]
A E
Bright lights and country music a bottle and a glass
F#7 B7
Soon I'll be forgetting that there ever was a past
E A E
And when everybody asks me just how I forget so fast
B7 E
I'll say bright lights and country music
[Outro]
B7 E
I love those bright lights and country music
