Verse 1
G           D              C            G
Queen size mattress on an old wood oak floor
G            D                C               G
And I don't see the need in closin' a screen door
G                 D              C            G
I wanna hear the birds when the day finally comes
    G           D              C        G          D          G
I fear all my days of bein' young are done, we're only just begun

Verse 2
      G          D           C           G
How close can a man come to God before dyin'?
           G           D         C         G
About as close as you were when you were tryin'
     G            D                      C            G
To shade the sun from your eyes on the creek's edge darlin'
          G                D              C            G
There's a bar 'round the bend a man is bendin' blues guitarin'


Chorus
                 C   G
When the day is done
                 D              Em
And those neon lights call you home
                         C                 G
You'll be beggin' of a Saviour to let you save her
     D                  Em
The sad times of twenty-so
                    C      G
When the night is through
                      D              Em
And those American girls are headed home
                            C                 G
You'll be beggin' of your Saviour to let you save her
           D                   Em
From the sweet nights of twenty-so

Verse 3
       G         D            C              G
And I know how hard it is to love a boy like me
          G            D             C             G
With my dry sense of humour and my reckless tendencies
     G        D            C             G
But not all labour's done with hardened hands
            G             D            C              G
You been chompin' at the bit, just to love an honest man


Chorus
                 C   G
When the day is done
                 D              Em
And those neon lights call you home
                         C                 G
You'll be beggin' of a Saviour to let you save her
     D                  Em
The sad times of twenty-so
                    C      G
When the night is through
                      D              Em
And those American girls are headed home
                            C                 G
You'll be beggin' of your Saviour to let you save her
           D                   Em
From the sweet nights of twenty-so

Chorus
                     C   G
So when the day is done
                 D              Em
And those neon lights call you home
                             C                 G
You'll be beggin' for your Saviour to let you save her
      D                   Em
The savage times of twenty-so
                    C      G
When the night is through
                      D              Em
And those American girls are headed home
                            C                 G
You'll be beggin' of your Saviour to let you save her
           D                   Em
From the sweet nights of twenty-so
