     A
It's getting late, have yer seen my mates?

    G
Ma, tell me when the boys get here

     D
It's seven o'clock and I wanna rock

      A
Wanna get a belly full of beer

   A
My old man's a-drunker than a barrel full of monkeys

       G
And my old lady she don't care

   D
My sister looks cute in her braces and boots

  A
A handful of grease in her hair

|Em7 |Em7    |
 ---- --- Oh

[Chorus]

D
- Don't give us none of yer aggravation

      C
We've had it with yer discipline

    G
Oh, Saturday night's all right for fightin'

D                      Dsus D Dsus D
Get a little action in -    - -    -

D
Get about as oiled as a diesel train

C
Gonna set this dance alight

       G
'Cause Saturday night's the night I like

D /F# /G /G# A Saturday night's all right, all right, all right

F     Em      |D   | D |
Oooh, ooh ooh, ooh

             A
Well they're packed pretty tight in here tonight

    G
I'm lookin' for a dolly who'll see me right

      D
I may use a little muscle to get what I need

      A
I may sink a little drink and shout out, "She's with me"

  A
A couple of the sounds that I really like

        G
Are the sounds of a switchblade and a motorbike

      D
I'm a juvenile product of the workin' class

      A
Whose best friend floats in the bottom of a glass

|Em7   |Em7 |
 Oh --- ----

[Chorus]

D
- Don't give us none of your aggravation

I don't claim any of my charts show the "right" way to play a song. This chord chart represents my personal interpretation of this song. And as such, it's not something I care to debate.
