Verse
E
Friday evening, slipping on the ice
E A
Looking for adventure in the pale moonlight
E
I had a Coca-cola at the high school gym
E A E
But the girls wouldn't dance where the lights were dim
E
So, there were three or four big shots headin' downtown
E A
Cursin' up a storm and fallin' on the ground
E D
Got to the cafe, everybody gone
A D E
'Cause the band was playing and the dance was on
[Chorus]
D
And the Nighthawks were playin'
A E
We were feelin' right out of it
D A
They were really playin'
B A B
It was a brand new song about spending the night together
NC E
And we were colder than ever
[Verse 2]
E
Dale's big brother wandered out of the hall
E A
Sayin', "Home you little buggers, you're breakin' the law"
E
Then he took us to the alley and he gave us each a beer
E A E
And we heard about the women that were easy 'round here
E
Me, I had a cigarette, couldn't find a light
E A
We shivered in our parkas by the blue street light
E D
Lookin' at the door, we all tried a grin
A D E
As we counted up our change but we couldn't get in
[Chorus]
D
And the Nighthawks were playin'
A E
We were feelin' right out of it
D A
They were really playin'
B A B
It was a brand new song about spending the night together
NC E
And we were colder than ever
[Verse 3]
E
I was headin' out, Eddie said, "Don't go
E A
Remember the guy my mother's boyfriend knows?
E
Well, we got a little money, it should be enough
E A E
And it sure beats holdin' this power pole up
E
So the bootlegger came and his nose did shine
E A
We gave him all our money for a bottle of wine
E D
We waited in the alley, but he never returned
A D E
And the older kids chuckled while our faces burned
[Chorus]
D
And the Nighthawks were playin'
A E
We were feelin' right out of it
D A
They were really playin'
B A B
It was a brand new song about spending the night together
NC E
And we were colder than ever
