John Denver – Saturday Night In Toledo Ohio (Guitar)

C                                             C#dim       G7
Saturday night in Toledo, Ohio is like being nowhere at all

                            C          Am
All through the day how the hours rush by

    D7                      G7        F#7   G7
You sit in the park and you watch the grass die

         C
Ah, but after the sunset, the dusk and the twilight

                C#dim           G7
When shadows of night start to fall

                                C         Am
They roll back the sidewalks precisely at ten

    F#7                       B7       Bb7 B7
And people who live there are not seen a-gain

     C          C7            F
Just two lonely truckers from Great Falls, Montana

      G7                     C           C7
And a salesman from places unknown -es unknown

    F         Cdim      C          A7
All huddled together in downtown Toledo

   D7              G7         C
To spend their big night all alone

    C
You ask how I know of Toledo, Ohio

                C#dim      G7
Well, I spent a week there one day

                             C           Am
They've got entertainment to dazzle your eyes

   D7                   G7        F#7  G7
Go visit the bakery and watch the buns rise

        C                                                     F#dim       G7
Ah, but let's not forget that the folks of Toledo unselfishly gave us the scale

                             C                       Am
"No springs, honest weight", that's the promise they made

   D7                         G7       F#7 G7
So smile and be thankful next time you get weighed

     C           C7        F
And "wiv and wet wiv", let this be our motto

G7                          C              C7
Let's let the sleeping dogs lie -ping dogs lie

    F             Cdim      C      Am
And here's to the dogs of Toledo, Ohio

D7        G7          C    G7 C
Ladies we bid you goodbye
