You might want to play this with the G5 C5 D5 chord forms using a capo in the  
2nd fret for the open tones. 
 

A5                                   D5 
Silvia was working as a waitress in Beaumont 
                     A5                                                   E5 
She said I'm moving away I'm gonna get what I want 
     A5                                                        D5 
I'm tired of these small town boys, they don't move fast enough 
                 A5                                                                   E5                    A5 
I'm gonna find me one who wears a leather jacket and likes his living rough 


A5                                                              D5 
So she saved her tips and over time and bought an old rusty car 
         A5                                                                               E5 
She sold most everything she had to make a brand new start 
                 A5                                          D5 
She said I won't be needing these silly dresses and nylon hose 
                      A5                                                   E5                        A5 
Cause when I get to where I'm going, I'm gonna buy me all new clothes 
 

A5                     D5                          A5 
The nights too long, it just drags on and on 
                                      E5 
And then there's never enough 
                                                        A5 
That's when the sun starts coming up 
                            D5      E5                                  A5     D5 
Don't let go of her hand, you just might be the right man 
       E5             D5              E5            D5 
She loves the night, she loves the night 
        E5                        D5 
She doesn't want the night 
                         A5 
Don't want it to end 
D5                      A5 
Don't want it to end 


A5                                                                D5 
Well she works in an office now, and she guesses the pays alright 
                 A5                                                                          E5 
She can a buy a few new things to wear, and still go out at night 
             A5                                                                           D5 
and as soon as she gets home from work, she wants to be out with the crowd 
                          A5                                                       E5            A5 
Where she can dance and toss her head back and laugh out loud 
 

A5                                                  D5 
Well the music playing fast, and they just met 
      A5                                                                                  E5 
He presses up against her and his shirts all soaked with sweat 
                     A5                                              D5 
And with her back against the bar, she can listen to the band 
                 A5                                     E5                        A5 
And she's holding a Corona and it's cold against her hand 
 

A5                     D5                          A5 
The nights too long, it just drags on and on 
                                      E5 
And then there's never enough 
                                                        A5 
That's when the sun starts coming up 
                            D5      E5                                  A5     D5 
Don't let go of her hand, you just might be the right man 
       E5             D5              E5            D5 
She loves the night, she loves the night 
        E5                        D5 
She doesn't want the night 
                         A5 
Don't want it to end 
D5                      A5 
Don't want it to end 
D5                      A5 
Don't want it to end 
D5                      A5 
 
D5                      A5 
 
D5                      A5
