Verse 1:
A G D
Five guys in a station wagon barely held together
A G D
By a long string of honky tonks tonight and till forever
A G D A
Tarp on top keeps the rain off a pile of guitars
A G D
Well, we got fourteen hours till we’re hitting’ Albuquerque
A G D
Floorboards covered up with tater chips and jerky
A G D A
But the tanks full, red bull is keeping’ us a buzzin’ so far
G
Just when we’re thinkin’ we can’t take it no more
Chorus:
D G
When the lights go down and we hit the first chord
A
The girls start movin’ cross the dance floor
D G
Well it sounds real good and feels even better
A
Rememberin’ why we’re out here together
D G A
Forget we’re tired, forget the miles, look at us man, look at these smiles
Bm G D A
Hey, we work 22 hours a day, for two hours of play

Verse 2:
A G D
Last night we tore it up down in Tucson, Arizona
A G D
Everybody loved us but the dang club owner
A G D A
He shorted us three hundred bucks we were fighting’ mad, hell
A G D
But we found enough bills in the tip jar to get us
A G D
To the next night in Waco and barely out of Texas
A G D A
As bad as it gets, so far it ain’t gotten too bad
G
Just when we’re thinkin’ we can’t take it no more

D G
When the lights go down and we hit the first chord

If we never make the big time, well me and my boys, will be just fine
Chorus:

When the lights go down and we hit the first chord

The girls start screaming’ on the front row
D G
Well it sounds real good and feels even better
A
Rememberin’ why we’re out here together

Forget we’re tired, forget the miles, look at us man, look at these smiles
