SATURDAY NIGHT'S ALRIGHT FOR FIGHTING Year: 1973 Album: GOODBYE YELLOW BRICK ROAD Writers: Elton John\ Bernie Taupin G\D D G\D D G\D D D\C C C G G\D D G\D D G\D D D\C C C G G It's getting late have you seen my mates F Ma tell me when the boys get here C It's seven o'clock and I want to rock G Want to get a belly full of beer G My old man's drunker than a barrel full of monkeys F And my old lady she don't care C My sister looks cute in her braces and boots G A handful of grease in her hair Dm C Don't give us none of your aggravation Bb We had it with your discipline F Saturday night's alright for fighting C Get a little action in C Get about as oiled as a diesel train Bb Gonna set this dance alight F `Cause Saturday night's the night I like C G Saturday night's alright alright alright Eb6 Bb F G G G\D F G G G\D F Whoo________! G Well they're packed pretty tight in here tonight F I'm looking for a dolly who'll see me right C I may use a little muscle to get what I need G I may sink a little drink and shout out "She's with me!" G A couple of the sound that I really like F Are the sounds of a switchblade and a motorbike C I'm a juvenile product of the working class G Whose best friend floats in the bottom of a glass Dm (CHORUS) (INSTRUMENTAL VERSE) (CHORUS) C Saturday, saturday, saturday, Bb Saturday, saturday, saturday, F Saturday, saturday, saturday, C Saturday night's alright.
