Capo 1st Fret

Silent weekend,

My baby she gave it to me
D7
Silent weekend,
       A
My baby she gave it to me.
          E7
She's actin' tough and hardy
        D7
She says it ain't my party
                   A
And she's leavin' me in misery.


Silent weekend,
My baby she took me by surprise.
Silent weekend,
My baby she took me by surprise.
She's rockin' and a-reelin'
Head up to ceiling
An' swinging with some other guys.

Silent weekend,
Oh Lord, I wish Monday would come.
Silent weekend,
Oh Lord, I sure wish Monday would come.
She's uppity, she's rollin',
She's in the groove, she's strolling
Over to the jukebox playin' deaf and dumb.

                                D
        Well, I done a whole lotta thinkin' 'bout a whole lot of cheatin',
                   A
        And I, maybe I did some just to please.
                        B7
        But I just walloped a lotta pizza after makin' our peace,
                    Esus4                     E
        Puts ya down on bended knees.


Silent weekend,
Man alive, I'm burnin' up on my brain.
Silent weekend,
Man alive, I'm burnin' up on my brain.
She knows when I'm just teasin'
But it's not likely in the season
To open up a passenger train.
