Intro:
[Dm] [F] [Dm] [F]
Verse 1:
[Dm] The gentle man caller in the [C]blue suede shoes
He don't know [Gm]what to do - he just wants to look [F]good for you
[Dm] So he rushes in to tell you what he [C]did today,
But he can't think of [Gm]what to say. I think you'll listen [F]anyway
Chorus 1:
[Gm] [Bb] He wants to have a [F]good time [C]just like everyb[Gm]ody
[Bb] He doesn't want to [F]fall apart[C]
Verse 2:
[Dm] You watch him as he stutters over [C]what to say
It's just a little [Gm]game you play. It's no easier for [F]you some days
(Riff 1) Dm C
You wish that you could tell him it'll be okay
But you feel a little [Gm]shy these days cause everybody [F]goes away
Chorus 2:
[Gm]Oh [Bb] You just wanna have a [F]good time [C]just like everybody
[Gm]else [Bb] You don't wanna to fall a[F]part this time[C]
Solo chords: (key of F)

Well, darling if it's [Gm]sht came out
F (Riff 2)
Then I suppose that it's sht went in
[Dm] Even though I couldn't say I've been the places [C]that you've been
You know he made my [Gm]heart real strong even if he made my [F]head real thin
Chorus 3:
[Gm] [Bb] I want to have a [F]good time [C]just like everyb[Gm]ody
[Bb] And I don't wanna [F]fall apart[C]
Oh.[Gm].. [Bb] I wanna have a [F]good time [C]just like everybody [Gm]else[Bb]
And I don't wanna fall a[F]part this time so would you [C]please invite me [Gm]in

I'm j[C]ust another boy from [Gm]Texas
