[Verse 1]
G                 C
Goodnight ladies, ladies goodnight
D                   G   E  C  D
It's time to say goodbye...
G                 C
Goodnight ladies, ladies goodnight
D                   G    G7
It's time to say goodbye
[Verse 2]
Am                  D                G
    Now, all night long you've been drinking your tequila
Am                  D                     G
    But now you've sucked your lemon peel dry, 
               E
So why not get high, high, high
    C           D                  G    E  C  D
And good  night ladies, ladies goodnight
[Verse 3]
G                 C
Goodnight ladies, ah, ladies goodnight
D                   G   E  C  D
It's time to say goodbye
G                 C
Goodnight sweet ladies, oh, ladies goodnight
D                   G    G7
It's time to say goodbye
[Verse 4]
Am                  D                G
Ah, we've been together for the longest time
Am                  D                     G
But now it's time to get high
               E
Come on, let's get high, high, high
    C           D                  G    E  C  D
And goodnight ladies, ladies goodnight
[Verse 5]
G                         A7
Oh, I'm still missing my other half
C                            G
  It must be something I did in the past
C             G               E
Don't it just make you wanna laugh
       A7               D
It's a lonely Saturday night
[Verse 6]
G                         A7
Oh, nobody calls me on the telephone
C                            G
I put another record on my stereo
C             G               E
But I'm still singing a song of you
        A7     D       G      G7
It's a lonely Saturday night
[Verse 7]
     Em                      Am
Now, if I was an actor, or a dancer who is glamorous
      Em                Am                 Em   Am   Em
Then, you know, amorous life would soon be mine
             E
But now the tinsel light of star break
              E7
Is all that's left to applaud my heart break
     Am                                D
And eleven o'clock I watch the network news
[Verse 8]
             G                              A7
Oh, woh, woh, something tells me that you're really gone
C                                  G
You said we could be friends, but that's not what I want
C                 G                E
Ah, anyway, my TV-dinner's almost done 
        A7    D        G
It's a lonely Saturday night
          E                A7     D         G
I mean to tell you, it's a lonely Saturday night
