 G (320003@1)name="chord_x2444x@1">B
 Guess who just got back today?
 C (x32010@1)name="chord_022100@1">E
 Those wild-eyed boys that had been away
 B (x2444x@1)name="chord_022100@1">E
 Haven't changed, haven't much to say
 C (x32010@1)name="chord_xx0232@1">D
 But man, I still think those cats are great

 G (320003@1)name="chord_x2444x@1">B
 They were asking if you were around
 C (x32010@1)name="chord_022100@1">E
 How you was, where you could be found
 B (x2444x@1)name="chord_022100@1">E
 I told them you were living downtown
 C (x32010@1)name="chord_xx0232@1">D
 Driving all the old men crazy


 G (320003@1)name="chord_320003@1">G A (x02220@1)name="chord_x32010@1">C
 The boys are back in town, the boys are back in town

 I said the boys are back in town. The boys are back in town.


 G (320003@1)name="chord_x2444x@1">B
 There was this chick who used to dance a lot
 C (x32010@1)name="chord_022100@1">E
 Every night she'd be on the floor shaking what she got
 B (x2444x@1)name="chord_022100@1">E
 Man when I tell you she was cool, she was red hot
 C (x32010@1)name="chord_xx0232@1">D
 I mean she was steaming

 G (320003@1)name="chord_x2444x@1">B
 That night over at Johnny's place
 C (x32010@1)name="chord_022100@1">E
 Well this chick got up and she slapped Johnny's face
 B (x2444x@1)name="chord_022100@1">E
 Man we just fell about the place
 C (x32010@1)name="chord_xx0232@1">D
 If that chick don't want to know, forget her


 G (320003@1)name="chord_320003@1">G A (x02220@1)name="chord_x32010@1">C
 The boys are back in town, the boys are back in town
 G (320003@1)name="chord_x02220@1">A C (x32010@1)I said the boys are back in town. The boys are back in town
 G (320003@1)name="chord_320003@1">G A (x02220@1)name="chord_x32010@1">C
 The boys are back in town, the boys are back in town
 G (320003@1)name="chord_320003@1">G A (x02220@1)name="chord_x32010@1">C
 The boys are back in town, the boys are back in town.

 G (320003@1)name="chord_x2444x@1">B 
 Friday night they'll be dressed to kill
 C (x32010@1)name="chord_022100@1">E
 Down at Dino's bar and grill
 B (x2444x@1)name="chord_022100@1">E
 The drink will flow and blood will spill
 C (x32010@1)name="chord_xx0232@1">D
 If the boys want to fight, you'd better let them

 G (320003@1)name="chord_x2444x@1">B C (x32010@1)That jukebox in the corner blasting out my favorite song
 E (022100@1)name="chord_x2444x@1">B
 The nights are getting warmer, it won't be long
 E (022100@1)It won't be long till summer comes
 C (x32010@1)name="chord_xx0232@1">D
 Now that the boys are here again


 G (320003@1)name="chord_320003@1">G A (x02220@1)name="chord_x32010@1">C
 The boys are back in town, the boys are back in town
 G (320003@1)name="chord_x02220@1">A C (x32010@1)I said the boys are back in town. The boys are back in town


 After that you play the chorus a few times. Thats it!

 This song is using all power chords, its pretty easy, but a GREAT SONG!
 Feel free to ask me any questions!
