[Intro]
G Am C G Am C G
[Verse 1]
Am7 C
On the night that we first met
G
"Don’t Rock It" was on the radio
Am C
And the time that we first kissed
G
Keith Whitley was singing “Don’t Close Your Eyes”
Am C
But the night she said goodbye
D
I heard “I Saw Goodbye In Her Eyes”
C
Ruined every damn one I liked
C G
That’s why
[Chorus]
Am C
I don’t wanna hear Jones tonight
G
Buddy, that ain’t the place I’m in
Am C
I can’t take another steel guitar crying
G
‘Bout a girl getting gone with the wind
Am
I need some loud guitars and an open bar
C Em
If I’m gonna pick this broken heart up off the rocks
D C
So tonight, I’m gonna be the guy
D
Dumping quarters from his pocket
C G
Anything to rock the jukebox
[Interlude]
G Am G C G Am G C G
[Verse 2]
Am C
It’d be different if she was in my arms
G
We were in a truck by a fire at a farm
Am C
If it was any other ordinary day
D
I’d just drink a beer and let ‘em all play
D
But it ain’t, she’s gone
C
And these ain’t the songs
G
You hear in a honky-tonk
[Chorus]
Am C
But I don’t wanna hear Jones tonight
G
Buddy, that ain’t the place I’m in
Am C
I can’t take another steel guitar crying
G
‘Bout a girl getting gone with the wind
Am
I need some loud guitars and an open bar
C Em
If I’m gonna pick this broken heart up off the rocks
D C
So tonight, I’m gonna be the guy
D
Dumping quarters from his pocket
C G Am G C
Anything to rock the jukebox
G Am G C
(Anything to rock the jukebox)
[Bridge]
G Am
So, I apologize if you came here tonight
C
To hear a country song
Em
You came to the wrong place
D
I don’t wanna hear a chord
C D
And the truth heartbreak, bandaid
[Chorus]
G Am G
‘Cause I don’t wanna hear Jones tonight
G
Buddy, that ain’t the place I’m in
Am C
I can’t take another steel guitar crying
G
‘Bout a girl getting gone with the wind
Am
I need some loud guitars and an open bar
C Em
If I’m gonna pick this broken heart up off the rocks
D C
So tonight, I’m gonna be the guy
D
Dumping quarters from his pocket
C G
Anything to rock the jukebox
[Outro]
Am C
(On the night that we first met
G Am C
"Don’t Rock It" was on the radio)
On the night that we first met
"Don't Rock It" was on the radio
And the time that we first kissed
Keith Whitley was singing "Don't Close Your Eyes"
But the night she said goodbye
I heard "I Saw Goodbye In Her Eyes"
Ruined every damn one I liked
That's why
I don't wanna hear Jones tonight
Buddy, that ain't the place I'm in
I can't take another steel guitar crying
'Bout a girl getting gone with the wind
I need some loud guitars and an open bar
If I'm gonna pick this broken heart
Up off the rocks
So tonight, I'm gonna be the guy
Dumping quarters from his pocket
Anything to rock the jukebox
It'd be different if she was in my arms
We were in a truck by a fire at a farm
If it was any other ordinary day
I'd just drink a beer and let 'em all play
But it ain't, she's gone
And these ain't the songs
You hear in a honkytonk
But I don't wanna hear Jones tonight
Buddy, that ain't the place I'm in
I can't take another steel guitar crying
'Bout a girl getting gone with the wind
I need some loud guitars and an open bar
If I'm gonna pick this broken heart
Up off the rocks
So tonight, I'm gonna be the guy
Dumping quarters from his pocket
Anything to rock the jukebox
Anything to rock the jukebox
So, I apologize if you came here tonight
To hear a country song
You came to the wrong place
I don't wanna hear a chord
And the truth heartbreak, bandaid
'Cause I don't wanna hear Jones tonight
Buddy, that ain't the place I'm in
I can't take another steel guitar crying
'Bout a girl getting gone with the wind
I need some loud guitars and an open bar
If I'm gonna pick this broken heart off the rocks
So tonight, I'm gonna be the guy
Dumping quarters from his pocket
Anything to rock the jukebox
On the night that we first met
"Don't Rock It" was on the radio
