Disconnect the horn temporarily to see it the actual horn is the
problem and trace backwards from there.

If it still blows with the horn disconnected, it might be whatever
feeds that horn (wire, relay, etc).

Exactly! Just a couple of hours ago some guy would have backed right into
the front end of my '98 Accord if I hadn't practically laid down on the horn
button. This happened at a crowded convenience store, and the guy didn't
check his rear view or side mirrors before he started to back up--let alone
look over his shoulder. So, the horn saved me some body work hassles. Thank
God for that horn!
