[Verse]
D
I got a house, down a back road
G
I got a flag, on the front porch
A
I got a dog, named Waylon
D
I got a driveway, that needs pavin'
D
I got a boat, with a 2 stroke
G
A couple guaranteed to make ya laugh jokes
A
I got friends in low places
D
Yeah, life, is what you make it
[Chorus]
D
I might not end up in the hall of fame
G
with a star on a sidewalk with my name
A D
or a statue in my hometown when I'm gone
D
Nobody gonna name their babies after me
G
I might not go down in history
A D
But, I'll go down to the honky tonk
[Verse]
D
I got a girl, named Sheila
G
She goes batshit, on tequila
A
I got a job, that gets the job done
D
I got a loan at the bank, it's a big one
D
The only place, you might see my name
G
Is on a wall, for a good time call
A
I'm a local legend on a Friday night
D
in a Pabst Blue Ribbon neon light
[Chorus]
D
I might not end up in the hall of fame
G
with a star on a sidewalk with my name
A D
or a statue in my hometown when I'm gone
D
Nobody gonna name their babies after me
G
I might not go down in history
A D
But, I'll go down to the honky tonk
[Bridge]
D
I go down, to the honky tonk
G
I go down, to the honky tonk
A D
I go down, I go down to the honky tonk
D
I go down, to the honky tonk
G
I go down, to the honky tonk
A D
I go down, I go down to the honky tonk
[Chorus]
D
I might not end up in the hall of fame
G
with a star on a sidewalk with my name
A D
or a statue in my hometown when I'm gone
D
Nobody gonna name their babies after me
G
I might not go down in history
A D
But, I'll go down to the honky tonk
[Outro]
D
I go down, to the honky tonk
G
I go down, to the honky tonk
A D
I go down, I go down to the honky tonk
D
I go down, to the honky tonk
G
I go down, to the honky tonk
A D
I go down, I go down to the honky tonk

you can also play it by tuning your entire guitar a half step down and playing E, A, B. my guitar is always tuned a half step down so it just made it easier than going to drop D just to capo it.

Jacob is one of the most common boy's names, so lots of people are naming babies after you, Jake
