[Intro: ]C G Em F x2
C
Saturday drags on
G
I'm waiting for five o'clock
Em F
I'm going out with the boys again
C
And I've waited all week
G
Just to sit three across the seat
Em F
And as soon as this workday ends
G F
All our troubles will be behind us
chorus:
C
When you put that Chevy in gear
G
Hand me another beer
Em
Cause this one's empty
Em F
See if you can hit that sign
C
There's a dirt road up ahead
G
Dim your lights and make a left
Em
Everybody pile out
F
The stars are bright
C G Em F
On another Saturday night.
C G Em F
Everyone shut up
Turn the volume up
Cause this is one of my fifty favorite songs
And Waylon's a "rambling man"
Gary Stewart is "single again"
And all of us are smiling and singing along
All my troubles are way behind me
chorus
Where's the lighter at
It's a round of Coors and a cigarette
I'll buy this one
You can get me next time
You see that girl in red
I think she'd like to dance
So I stroll up and I give her my best line
And all my troubles are way behind me
chorus
C
Saturday drags on
G
I'm waiting for five o'clock
Em F
I'm going out with the boys again.
