Honky Cat Acoustic Chords & Lyrics - Elton John

[D7] [D] [G] . . .

[D7]When I look back boy I must have been [D]green
[G]Bopping in the country, fishing in a stream
[D7]Looking for an answer [D]trying to find a sign
[G]Until I saw your city lights honey I was blind

They said [B7]get back honky cat

Better get back to the woods
Well I [E7]quit those days and my redneck ways
[D7]mmmmmm [D]oh the change is gonna do me [G]good

[D7] [D] [G]

You better [B7]get back honky cat

Living in the city ain't where it's at
It's like [E7]trying to find gold in a silver mine
It's like [D7]trying to drink whisky, [D]oh, from a bottle of [G]wine

[D7] [D] [G]

Well I [D7]read some books and I [D]read some magazines
About those [G]high class ladies down in New Orleans
And all the [D7]folks back home well, said I was a fool
They said [G]oh, believe in the Lord is the golden rule

They said [B7]get back honky cat

Better get back to the woods
Well I [E7]quit those days and my redneck ways
[D7]mmmmmm [D]oh the change is gonna do me [G]good

[D7] [D] [G] . . .

They said [B7]get back honky cat

Better get back to the woods
Well I [E7]quit those days and my redneck ways
[D7]mmmmmm [D]oh the change is gonna do me [G]good

They said [D7]stay at home boy, you gotta tend the farm
[G]Living in the city boy, is going to break your heart
But [D7]how can you stay, when your heart says no?
[G]How can you stop when your feet say go?

They said [B7]get back honky cat

Better get back to the woods
Well I [E7]quit those days and my redneck ways
[D7]mmmmmm [D]oh the change is gonna do me [G]good

You better [B7]get back honky cat

Living in the city ain't where it's at
It's like [E7]trying to find gold in a silver mine
It's like [D7]trying to drink whisky, [D]oh, from a bottle of [G]wine

[D7] [D] [G] . . .
