DThat you really shouldn't tell cause you Bmknow it ain't right

Like Aanything might happen tonightD  Bm  G  A  
With a kGiss and a whisper in the baAckseat of a car

Your gut hurts from laughing at some dirty joke

D Bm

That you really shouldn't tell cause you know it ain't right

But you can't help but feelin

A D Bm G A

Like anything might happen tonight

G A

With a kiss and a whisper in the backseat of a car

G A

Collecting young girls just like fireflies in a jar

G A

But the glass is all empty their wings took flight

G A D Bm G A

So fill er up good Joe cause anything might happen tonight

D Bm G A

G A

Now there's beer on my breath as I lean to your ear

If we close our eyes try with all of our might

Can you remember that feeling

A D Bm G A

Like anything might happen tonight

[SOLO]

Now who is that girl with the red dress on

She makes me remember back when I was young

And I'd give anything for just a little more moonlight

Can't come home now Mom

Cause anything might happen tonight
