Verse 1 

  E                         B 
Connie came back for her second cousin's wedding 
  A 
First time she'd been home in 'bout a year or two 
  E                      B 
Just in time for the rehearsal dinner 
 A                              B 
But that crazy Connie wasn't wearing any shoes 


Chorus 

              E                  B 
She lives in L.A., she flies to New York City 
       A 
That woman's been around the world 
                   E               B 
You can take that girl out of the honky tonk 
         A 
But you can't take the honky tonk,  
                               B 
You can't take the honky tonk out of the girl

           E                       B 
Well the dinner broke up at about 11:30

And the boys went off to do what boys do 
   E                         B            
Connie said come here girls let's huddle up 
  A                          B 
Around something that's a hundred proof

           E                 B 
Well it's nine a.m. out in front of that church 
   A 
People are going nuts just looking for the groom 
   E                       B 
Somebody says hey by the way where's Connie 
 A                       B 
She's run off with that boy to Cancun 


Repeat Chorus
