All the pretty girls on a Saturday night
[Verse 1]
G# D# C#
So I call your name, cross my fingers
Fm D# G#
uncross the others, hesitate.
D# A#m D#
Oh I don't think straight with nothing to prove.
C# F* A* G*
I don't wanna say I'm leaving
F* G* G# D# Fm
I'll stay until the weekend.
C#
And you can take all the things;
C#* E* F
the boxes and rings
D#
and get going.
'Cause I've been waiting for...
[Hook]
G# D# Fm D#
All the pretty girls on a Saturday night.
G# D# Fm D#
Let it be, and come to me with the look in your eyes.
C# G# A#m G#
Will you break and take all the words from my mouth?
C# G# A#m G#
I wish all the pretty girls were shaking me down.
[Verse 2]
G# D#
So I call you out
C# Fm D# G#
Just to feel a little bit better about myself
D# A#m D#
I do, baby I do, I do, I do
G#
Until their lips start to move,
D#
and their friends wanna talk music
C# C#m
I say "I've never heard the tune!"
G# D#
But I have, I just hate the band
A#m D#
'cause they remind me of you.
C# F* A* G*
Every single night ends up the same,
F* G* G# D# Fm D#
I don't say much at all, but I bring up your name.
C# C#* E* F
(Over and over and over)
I think it's striking me out.
[Hook]
G# D# Fm D#
All the pretty girls on a Saturday night.
G# D# Fm D#

C# G# A#m G#
Will you break and take all the words from my mouth?
C# G# A#m G#
I wish all the pretty girls were shaking me down.
[Chorus]
G#
But not you,
D# Fm D#
you still wear boots and your hair is too long
G# D# Fm D#
and then this one doesn't want to admit she's fallen in love
C# G# A#m G#
Oh c'mon, oh c'mon, what's a boy to do
C# G# A#m G#
When all the pretty girls can't measure to you.
[Solo]

[Bridge]
C# F* A* G*
I don't understand your reasons
F* G* G# D# Fm
Please just stay over the weekend

You can't take all those things

They define you and me

everything we've become,
You're all that I need
Please don't make me face my generation alone.

when all the pretty girls can't measure to you
