SATURDAY NIGHT
EAGLES

INTRO:
|      |       |       |        |
G  Em  Am      D7      G  D/F#


   G            Em                Am
It seems like a dream now, it was so long ago,
    D                             C            D7
The moon burned so bright and the time went so slow,
      G            Em            Am
And I swore that I loved her and gave her a ring.
    D            D7          G
The bluebird was high on the wing.


CHORUS:
C        G           Am       G
Whatever happened to Saturday night?
C         G              Am7         F
Finding a sweetheart and holding her tight?
          C            G        Am      G
She said "Tell me, oh, tell me, was I alright?"
C        G           Am       G
Whatever happened to Saturday night?


    G                 Em          Am
The years brought the railroad it ran by my door.
            D                         C           D7
Now there's boards on the windows and dust on the floor
        G          Em       Am
And she passes the time at another man's side,
    D          D7           G
And I pass the time with my pride.


BRIDGE:
C              G      Em        C                 G        Em
What a tangled web we weave, go 'round with circumstance.
C               G      Em         Em7      C      G
Someone show me how to tell the   dancer   from   the dance.


SOLO:
|        |        |        |      |       |
Am  Em7  Am  Em7  Am  Em7  C  D


C        G           Am       G
Whatever happened to Saturday night
C          G          Am7      F
Choosing a friend and losing a fight?
           C            G  Am      G
She said, "Tell me, oh, tell me, are you alright?"
C        G           Am       Em
Whatever happened to Saturday night?
C        G           Am       G 
Whatever happened to Saturday night?
