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

[Verse 2]
      D                      C           G
How close can a man come to God before dyin’?
           D                     C         G  
About as close as you were when you were tryin’
     D                                    C          G
To shade the sun from your eyes on the creek’s edge darlin’
           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]
       D                      C               G
And I know how hard it is to love a boy like me
         D                          C              G
With my dry sense of humour and my reckless tendencies
     D                C                  G        
But not all labour’s done with hardened hands
           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
