[G#m] [E] [B]
[F#] [B] You know like a lot of Texas musicians Wade Bowen is known for solid songwriting making really good albums and putting on a great live show
Probably tell we're pretty big fans of his well
Here's the man himself with the story and the performance of Saturday night off his album a given
Saturday night was [E] a good way to point out the way that I like to write songs
You know I like to be a little depressing and [B] a little [F#] dark
You know I'd like to be different as [E] much as I can and
this is I think I stand on stage a lot of Saturday [A] nights throughout the years and
[B] See people having a good time
So you would [B] think I'd probably write about those people when I said I choose to write about that guy in the dark corner
the bar who's not having a good time and
create a story around him and
And it just happens to be he's heartbroken and missing a girl
and and I thought that's just obviously good country music material and
And then I put an up-tempo twist to it to kind of feel how that Saturday night feel to one of the better tracks
I think we've ever cut the studio just because of the energy it has the simplicity behind it
I love simple songs at times
And I think people the fans and the crowds really love simple songs at times just to kind of feel good
Bob you had a little bit have some fun, too
