Well she was a honky tonker 
    G               C 
And he was a family man 
         C                  G 
Yeah and she showed him her gold teeth 
          G               C 
When he'd hold her little hand

         F                                            C 
And they met out on the highway at the Paradise Motel lounge 
     G                                                                   C 
On a saturday night when things weren't right 'tween him and his wife in town 
 
 
           F            G           C 
And they's just another couple on a high plains jamboree 
F                G                   C 
Playing out them sad songs they understand 
          F            G             C 
Yeah they just another couple making jukebox memories 
    F            G                C 
And walking into troubles hand in hand

Verse 
             C                  G 
Well now she weren't no maid of cotton 
       G                    C 
And he weren't no hell of a man 
         C                    G 
But they must have loved each other 
     G               C 
Like only the lonely can

Cause they slow dance through the neons like a sorrow through a song 
         G                                                          C

Yeah they just another couple making jukebox memories 
      F            G                C 
And a-walking into troubles hand in hand 
       F            G                C 
Just a-walking into troubles hand in hand
