Break The Rules
         (Rossi/Young/Parfitt/Coghlan/Lancaster) 

        G5
Spent a long long evening in a low down honky-tonk bar
        G5
Pulled a low down lady with a long black honky-tonk car
  C5
I asked no questions, got no lies,
  C5                     D5              G5
I walked off with her, I didn't want any ties
    D5               G5
And I knew it wasn't right
    D5               F5  D5    C5    A#5 G5
But everybody has to sometimes break the rules.

        G5
Took me down on the highway doin' too may miles an hour
        G5
By that way she motor-talked we might have made the Eiffel Tower.
    C5
She stopped her motor by her own front door,
  C5                 D5                 G5
I knew she'd done it so many times before
    D5
And I was offered the floor.
    D5               F5  D5    C5    A#5 G5
But everybody has to sometimes break the rules.


First Solo: Guitar (I don't know this solo, sorry!)
Second solo: Piano
Third solo: Harmonica

  G5
I woke up next morning feeling kind of up and down
    G5
Cos I did not know if I was in or out of town
       C5
Then I saw the face from the night before
                    D5                    G5
Purse was empty and lying there on the floor
    D5                   G5
But like I told you before
     D5               F5  D5    C5    A#5 G5
That everybody has to sometimes break the rules

        G5
Spent a low down evening sitting high on a honky-tonk stool.
      G5
And I spent my money like a low down honky-tonk fool.
    D5               F5  D5    C5    A#5 G5
But everybody has to sometimes break the rules
    D5               F5  D5    C5    A#5 G5
But everybody has to sometimes break the rules
    D5               F5  D5    C5    A#5 G5
