INTRO:   G   Em   Am7   D7   G   D

G                 Em                      Am7
Seems like a dream now it was so long ago
      D7                                         C                  D
The moon burned so bright and the time went so slow
         G               Em               Am7
And I swore that I loved her and gave her a ring
      D                                  G
The bluebird was high on the wing

Am7        G                C            G
Whatever happened to Saturday Night
Am7        G                                     Dm7
Finding a sweetheart and holding her tight
               Am                  G    C           G
She said "Tell me, oh, tell me, was I all right?"
C            G                 D7 G D7 G
Whatever happened to Saturday Night?

      G                        Em          Am7
The years brought the railroad, it ran by my door
                  D7                                    C               D
Now there's boards on the windows and dust on the floor
             G               Em        Am7
And she passes the time at another man's side
      D              D7               G          G7
And I pass the time with my pride

C                     G         G7           C                        G            G7
What a tangled web we weave, go 'round with circumstance
C                         G        Em     G        C/G        G
Somone show me how to tell the dancer from the dance

Whatever happened to Saturday Night
Am7          G                         Dm7
Choosing a friend and losing a fight?
               Am                  G    C              G
She said "Tell me, oh, tell me, are you all right?"
