key:D, artist:Elton John

Intro: [D]///|[C]///|[G]///|[D]///|////|[C]///|[G]///|[D]///|

It's [D] getting late have you seen my mates


Ma [C] tell me when the boys get here
It's [G] seven o'clock and I want to rock
Want to [D] get a belly full of beer
My [D] old man's drunker than a barrel full of monkeys
And my [C] old lady she don't care
My [G] sister looks cute in her braces and boots
A [D] handful of grease in her hair
[Am7] / / / | / / Oh-h

[G] Don't give us none of your aggravation,


We [F] had it with your discipline
[C] Saturday night's alright for fighting,
[G] Get a little action in
[G] Get about as oiled as a diesel train,
[F] Gonna set the stands alight
‘Cause [C] Saturday night's the night I like,
[G] Saturday night's alright al-right, al-[D]-right,
[Gm7] Oooooo, [F] oo-[C]-oo [G] oo-oo [G]

[D] / / / | / / [Am] [C] | [D] / / / | / / [Am] [C]

Well they're [D] packed pretty tight in here tonight


I'm [C] looking for a dolly who'll see me right
I may [G] use a little muscle to get what I need
I may [D] sink a drink and shout out .. "She's with me!"
A [D] couple of the sounds that I really like
Are the [C] sounds of a switchblade and a motorbike
I'm a [G] juvenile product of the working class
Whose [D] best friend floats in the bottom of a glass
[Am7] Ohhh-[Am7]-hhhhh

[G] Don't give us none of your aggravation,


We [F] had it with your discipline
[C] Saturday night's alright for fighting,
[G] Get a little action in
[G] Get about as oiled as a diesel train,
[F] Gonna set the stands alight
‘Cause [C] Saturday night's the night I like,
[G] Saturday night's alright al-right, al-[D]-right,
[Gm7] Oooooo, [F] oo-[C]-oo [G] oo-oo [G]

[G] [G] [F] [F] [C] [C] [G] [G] x2
