Intro C  Dm7  G7   C

C  
HE'S BEEN WORKIN' ALL WEEK, HE'S GOT MENTAL FATIGUE
         Dm 
AND THAT OLD COUCH SURE LOOKS FINE
    G7 
ALL WEEK HE'S BEEN GONE, SHE'S BEEN SIT-TIN' ALONE
Dm7          G7         C
SLOWLY GOIN' OUT OF HER MIND

C        
AS HE KICKS OFF HIS SHOES FOR THE SIX O’CLOCK NEWS
       Dm
SHE'S GETTIN' ALL PRETTIED UP
           G7
OH, SHE'S WANTIN' TO BOOGIE, HE'S WANTIN' TO LAY THERE
Dm7             G7            C
SHE'S GOT THE FRIDAY NIGHT BLUES


F   G   C                  
AND THE FRIDAY NIGHT BLUES THEY GET IN YOUR SHOES,
         Dm 
AND THEY WORK TO GET YOU DOWN
        G7
OH, AND THERE AIN'T A LADY THAT I EVER KNEW
           Dm7        G7            C 
WHO DIDN'T NEED HER A NIGHT ON THE TOWN

F   G   C                          
BUT THE HILLS AND THE BILLS AND A WEEK'S WORTH OF DEALS
         Dm  
HAS GOT HIM FEELIN' MORE THAN USED
         G7  
OH, HE'S KICKIN' HIS SHOES OFF, SHE'S PUTTIN' HER'S ON
Dm7             G7          C
SHE'S GOT THE FRIDAY NIGHT BLUES


     
OH, THERE ONCE WAS A TIME, SHE WAS TOP OF THE LINE
HER NIGHTS LIKE TEENAGE DREAMS
NOW IT'S OP'RAHS AT NOON, DANCIN' 'ROUND WITH HER BROOM
TALKIN' TO HER WASHIN' MACHINE

OH, THE GIRL DOWN THE STREET SAYS HER OLD MAN IS NEAT
AND SHE MAKES IT SOUND SO TRUE
NOW SHE'S FEELIN' LONELY THINKS SHE'S THE ONLY
ONE WITH THE FRIDAY NIGHT BLUES


F   G   C                  
AND THE FRIDAY NIGHT BLUES THEY GET IN YOUR SHOES,
         Dm 
AND THEY WORK TO GET YOU DOWN
        G7
OH, AND THERE AIN'T A LADY THAT I EVER KNEW
           Dm7        G7            C 
WHO DIDN'T NEED HER A NIGHT ON THE TOWN

F   G   C                          
BUT THE HILLS AND THE BILLS AND A WEEK'S WORTH OF DEALS
         Dm  
HAS GOT HIM FEELIN' MORE THAN USED
         G7  
OH, HE'S KICKIN' HIS SHOES OFF, SHE'S PUTTIN' HER'S ON
Dm7             G7          C
SHE'S GOT THE FRIDAY NIGHT BLUES


AND THE FRIDAY NIGHT BLUES THEY GET IN YOUR SHOE'S
AND THEY WORK TO GET YOU DOWN
OH, AND THERE AIN'T A LADY THAT I EVER KNEW
WHO DIDN'T NEED HER A NIGHT ON THE TOWN
