[F]There we were just [G]sittin' cool and [C]cozy.
[F]Just about to [G]steal a little [C]kiss.

[F]Took a chance on [G]crashin' a dance on the [C]weekend...la la, [F]la la [C]la.
[F]We were almost [G]inside the place..when [F]somebody slammed the [G]door
in my face.
'[F]Hey, you guys have [G]gotta wear ties on the [C]weekend!'...la la, [F]la la [C]la.
[C]La la la la la [F]la la [C]la....
OUTRO:
[F]No harm done, just a-[G]havin' some fun on the [C]weekend...la la, [F]la la [C]la.
[F]That was all, we [G]had a big ball on the [C]weekend...la la, la [F]la [C]la.
