Lainey Wilson - Hang Tight Honey Chords

[Intro]
G
 
 
[Verse 1]
G
I got a bus ‘fore I got a house ‘cause
       C
That’s what dreams make you do
G
 Hittin’ them neon honky-tonks
   D
To play a two step or two
    G
Two hundred days to a hundred towns
         C                  G
Bringing boots to a sawdust floor
G
While this 6 string calls my name baby
D               G
I'll be missing yours
 
 
[Chorus]
G                      F
Hang tight honey I’m a white line running
       C                    G
Down a dream on a long lost highway
                         F
Me and this band playing one night stands
         C                        G
For some fans getting straight up sideways
                     F
But baby I miss your blue-collar kiss
     C                   G
Just one more day to get through
N.C.
Hang tight honey got a pocket full of money
                                   G  F  C  G
And I’m headed straight home to you
 
 
[Verse 2]
G
Yeah you can’t hold me and I can’t hold you
     C               G
From two time zones away
G
When you’re clocking out yeah I’m clocking in
        D
Getting ready to hit the stage
     G                                      C                   G
Just know they’re singing along to all them songs I wrote about you
                                              D           G
And I’ll be saving all my loving for you come sunday afternoon
 
 
[Chorus]
G                      F
Hang tight honey I’m a white line running
       C                    G
Down a dream on a long lost highway
                         F
Me and this band playing one night stands
         C                        G
For some fans getting straight up sideways
                     F
