E Johnny's in the drive and he’s drinkin' again Rough crowd downtown, but they're all my friends A B E By the end of the night, I won’t recall my name E Well, my Levi jean queen, I've been here all night, see A B E Someday I'll take you somewhere it never rains E But for right now, I'm tearin' down this town A B E How being young is so painful and strange Deborah's on the bar and she's dancin' again To an old folk song that reminds her of him She ain’t gettin’ down 'til they carry her away She was his Levi jean queen, but he’s long gone now, see End of the night, she'll get choked up by his name And she'll try her best just to let him go But she's sick and tired of his rough and younger ways Chorus: A E Lettin’ go, movin' on B C#m Keepin' strong and finding God A E B I find it awfully hard we made it here A E A few good friends on the longest night B C#m Gettin' high until we cry A E B Enjoyin' all the pain of younger years Now I'm drunk and walkin' home all alone, my honey Lookin' for a better place to spend my money Like takin' my Levi jean queen to see the stars Tougher than a lover and leaner than a fighter Looks to me we got another all-nighter I think God put us exactly where we are Chorus Enjoyin' all the pain of younger years Johnny's in the drive and he's drinkin' again Rough crowd downtown, but they're all my friends By the end of the night, I won't recall my name | TransposeReset Font sizeReset Ukulele Chord DiagramsA C#m E B Here you can see detailed diagrams for each ukulele chord used in the song.
