This song called Looking for the Heart of Saturday Night.
It's a new song.
[G] I'm anxious to play [Bb] it
It's kind of about driving down [N] Hollywood Boulevard, you know on Saturday night.
It's
Yeah
[Bb]
[Eb] In [Gm] fact Bob Webb and I kind of were kicking this around one [Ab] afternoon Saturday afternoon was
The idea of looking for the heart [Fm] of Saturday night, you know hadn't really worked on any tune about it [Eb] yet
[F]
We
Were both real jack Kerouac fans and so this is kind of a tribute to
Kerouacians
Well, you've gasped
We [Cm] got your arm [Ab] around your sweet one
your old's [Fm] mobile
caroling down the boulevard
[Gm] Looking for the heart of [Eb] Saturday night
You got paid on Friday where your pockets are [Ab]
jingling
You see the less?
Get all tangled [Fm] and you're cruising with a six [Bb]-pack
Looking for [Ab] the heart of [Eb] Saturday night
[Ab] Then you comb your hair and [Bb] shave your face
[Eb] Trying to wipe out every trace
[Ab] of all the other days
In the week
[Fm] This will be the Saturday [Bb] you reach your peak is you [Eb] stopping on the red?
You're going on the green
[Ab] Tonight'll be like nothing you've ever seen as [Fm] you're barreling down the boulevard
[Bb] You're looking for the [Ab] heart of [Eb] Saturday night
Well, [Ab] tell me is it the cracker the pool balls [Gm] or the neon buzz?
[Eb] Telephones ringing at your second cousin
[Ab] Is it the barmaid?
Smiling from the corner of her eye
[Fm] the magic of the
[Bb] melancholy tear in your eye
[Eb] Makes it kind of special
Down in the [Ab] core and you're dreaming of them Saturdays that came before and [Fm] you're stumbling
[Eb] stumbling on the heart of
Saturday night
And you guess you're up you're behind
Well, you [Ab] got your arm around your sweet one in your old
Smoky, [Fm] you know trailing down the boulevard
[Bb]
Looking for the heart [Eb] of Saturday night
[Ab] Is it the cracker the pool balls [Bb] or the neon buzz?
[Eb] Telephones ringing.
Well, it's your second cousin
[Ab] Is it the barmaid smiling from the corner of her eye?
[Fm] the magic of the
[Bb] Melancholy tear in your eye
It [Eb] makes it kind of quiver
Down in the [Ab] core and you're dreaming of them Saturdays
It came before and [Fm] you're stumbling
[Gm] Stumbling on the heart of [Eb] Saturday night
And [Ab] you're stumbling
[Gm] You stumbling on the [Ab] heart of [Eb] Saturday night
[Bb] [Eb]
