Status Quo - Going Down Town Tonight: chords

C
I'm going down town tonight,
                         F    C
I'm gonna find myself a dream
I'm gonna dress up right,
                              F
and be the best they've ever seen
         Dm              Am
You can tell from their eyes,
         Dm              Am
you can tell from their eyes
               G       C
That they're never impressed,
              G        C
that they're never impressed
          Dm             Am
From the way they walk round,
          Dm             Am
from the way they walk round
         G            C
They are used to the best,
         G            C
they are used to the best

Chorus:
C                      Am                       C
Going down town tonight, going down town tonight
                       Am                       G
Going down town tonight, going down town tonight

Why let them break you with their
self-sophisticated grace
'Cos when the cards are low you see
the smile come on their face
If you speak the right words,
if you speak the right words
They will hear what you say,
they will hear what you say
They will take your attention,
just take your attention
And then turn away, and then turn away

G                                C
Just one thing before you go my ladies of the night
G                                  F
Just one thing I have to say I've got you,
and you're
G                           C
Confident and debonair you move between the stars
G                                   F
Hungry for those staring eyes that fill your
        C
waking hours

Chorus

Going down town tonight, going down town tonight

The place has all run dry with
lonely echoes of the night
And some walk home alone,
while others find and hold on tight
If you speak the right words,
if you speak the right words
They will hear what you say,
they will hear what you say
They will take your attention,
just take your attention
And then turn away, and then turn away
