Standard (EADGBE)

When the lonely set in, I fought back the tears

I don't love you anymore is so hard to hear

It felt like a mile from our door to my truck

 Somehow I found the strength to fire it up

How lucky am I you said goodbye

  (let ring)

At seven o'clock on a Friday night

 I won't be lonely long

 By the time that first beer is gone

 I'll be floatin' on a neon cloud with my friends around

We'll be raising up our glasses and singing out loud

 To those done me wrong, drinkin' songs

 Hey ladies, tonight it's on

 No, I won't be lonely long

 Well, I usually ain't much on dancin', but tonight I'm cuttin' up a rug

 I get to say no ma'am when the ladies ask if I'm with anyone

 When I'm tippin' the band and buyin' everybody shots

Spendin' every dollar I got

 I won't be lonely long

 By the time that first beer is gone

 I'll be floatin' on a neon cloud with my friends around

We'll be raising up our glasses and singing out loud

 To those done me wrong, drinkin' songs

 Hey ladies, tonight it's on

 No, I won't be lonely long

There ain't an empty space in this parkin' lot

Look at all the friends I got

 I won't be lonely long

 By the time that first beer is gone

 I'll be floatin' on a neon cloud with my friends around

We'll be raising up our glasses and singing out loud

 To those done me wrong, drinkin' songs

 Hey ladies, tonight it's on

 No, I won't be lonely long

 No, I won't be lonely long
