Out In the Parking Lot

capo 2

Asus2              A         Asus2            A
Sittin' out on the fender of   someone else's truck
         Asus2    A       Asus2         A
Drinkin' Old Crow whiskey,  hot Seven-Up
           E          Asus2 A  Asus2 A
Out in the parking lot

And you can hear the band playin' right through the wall
Ain't no cover charge, ain't no last call
Out in the parking lot

Now there's a couple o' cowpokes puttin' up their dukes
There wuddn' much to it after both of 'em puked
Out in the parking lot

And then someone called the po-lice, and the po-lice finally came
And they wrote 'em a couple o' tickets and they took a couple o' names
Out in the parking lot

       G                    D
Well I love to see the neon dancin' on the gravel
      A
And I love to hear the pickup trucks come unraveled
G               D   E
Some are givin' up, some are givin' in
           F#m         D             E
Looks like everybody's lookin' for a friend
(sustain E)
Out in the parking lot

Break (verse chords)

Whoops, there's a couple that could not wait to get home
Well they're prob'ly in love so let's leave 'em alone
Out in the parking lot

Now the band's on the bus, they're all loaded up and leavin'
But the drummer's got a girlfriend and she's tuggin' at his sleeve
Out in the parking lot

Refrain

Now everybody's gone, they have shot out all the lights
And the dust begins to settle and it's never been so quiet
Out in the parking lot
