One, two, three, four

D D G A D




🎸 Verse 1:
D
Johnny's in the drive and he’s drinkin' again
D
Rough crowd downtown, but they're all my friends
        G                  A                D
By the end of the night
I won’t recall my name
D

Well, my Levi jean queen
I've been here all night, see
    G                       A              D
Someday I'll take you somewhere it never rains
D
But for right now
I'm tearin' down this town
           G           A            D
How being young is so painful and strange


🎸 Verse 2:
D
Deborah's on the bar and she's dancin' again
D
To an old folk song that reminds her of him
            G                     A         D
She ain’t gettin’ down 'til they carry her away
D
She was his Levi jean queen, but he’s long gone now, see
            G                   A              D
End of the night, she'll get choked up by his name
D
And she'll try her best just to let him go
           G                      A                D
But she's sick and tired of his rough and younger ways


🎸 Chorus:
         G          D
Lettin’ go, movin' on
           A               Bm
Keepin' strong and finding God
            G      D                A
I find it awfully hard we made it here
              G                    D
A few good friends on the longest night
         A            Bm
Gettin' high until we cry
G         D                 A
Enjoyin' all the pain of younger years


🎸 Verse 3:
D
Now I'm drunk and walkin' home all alone, my honey
D
Lookin' for a better place to spend my money
      G              A                     D
Like takin' my Levi jean queen to see the stars
D
Tougher than a lover and meaner than a fighter
D
Looks to me we got another all-nighter
         G           A              D
I think God put us exactly where we are


🎸 Chorus:
         G          D
Lettin’ go, movin' on
           A               Bm
Keepin' strong and finding God
            G      D                A
I find it awfully hard we made it here
              G                    D
A few good friends on the longest night
         A            Bm
Gettin' high until we cry
G         D                 A
Enjoyin' all the pain of younger years
G         D                 A
Enjoyin' all the pain of younger years


🎸 Outro:
D
Johnny's in the drive and he's drinkin' again
D
Rough crowd downtown, but they're all my friends
       G                    F#m            D
By the end of the night
I won't recall my name
