I tried a few hours, but decided I sound better improvising something on this than tabbing this one out. If anyone has the lead part, mail me, or comment me, I will give you full credit... Or even if you don't want it to appear on mxtabs, I'm really curious! Outtro ------ This is basically the chorus, just strum these chords, listen to the record!

A couple of the sounds that I really like Are the sounds of a switchblade and a motorbike I'm a juvenile product of the working class Whose best friend floats from the bottom of a glass Don't give us none of your aggravation We had it with your discipline Saturday night's alright for fighting Get a little action in Get about as oiled as a diesel train Gonna set this town alight Saturday night's the night I like Saturday night's alright alright alright Don't give us none of your aggravation We had it with your discipline Saturday night's alright for fighting Get a little action in Get about as oiled as a diesel train Gonna set this town alight Saturday night's the night I like Saturday night's alright alright alright Saturday...Saturday...Saturday... Saturday...Saturday...Saturday... Saturday...Saturday...Saturday night's alright Saturday...Saturday...Saturday... Saturday...Saturday...Saturday... Saturday...Saturday...Saturday night's alright
