C#
Saturday night and a six pack, girl,
F#                      C#
A big star shining on a small town world,
                            F#
It's a helluva life, it's a helluva life.
   C#
And KC lights on a dirt road dance,
    D#m                    F#
You take that kiss just as far as you can,
       C#            Fm          F#          G#
It's a helluva life, oh, it's a helluva life.
    C#                     Fm
And pennies make dimes and dimes make dollars,
F#                  D#m
Dollars buy gas and longneck bottles,
C#                   Fm
Beer gets a barefoot country girl swaying,
     F#                          G#
To a song that's playing on the radio station.
    C#                 Fm
The bad times make the good times better,
F#                          D#m
Look in her eyes and you're gone forever,
     C#              Fm
On a heavenly ride...
             F#           G#              C#   
Yeah, it's a helluva life. It's a helluva life.

Fm C# D#m F#

    C#                        Fm
And we all have faith, and we all have hope,
         C#                        F#
But we're all a little lost in the same damn boat.
       C#            Fm           D#m      G#
It's a helluva life, yeah, it's a helluva life.
F#                 C#
Something bout the night girl,

When you got the right girl,
              F#
Sitting right beside you,
C#
Looking at the sky, girl
                        D#m
Thinking bout why we're here,
    C#
And where we're going,
              D#m
Baby, here we are,
    G#
And all I know is...
C#                     Fm
Pennies make dimes and dimes make dollars,
F#                   D#m
Dollars buy gas and longneck bottles,
C#                   Fm
Beer gets a barefoot country girl swaying,
     F#                          G#
To a song that's playing and the world starts fadin'.
    C#                  Fm
The bad times make the good times better,
F#                          D#m
Look in her eyes and you're gone forever,
     C#             Fm
On a heavenly ride...
             F#            G#             C#

To a song that's playing, it's a perfect combination.
