[Intro 1]

[Em][B][Em][B][Em][A][Em]
[B][A][A5][Em]

[Verse 1]
[Em]Locked up in the classroom [D5]waiting [Em]for the fight
[D]Down [Em]to the schoolyard
knocking the gate
[D]Into [Em]the alley meet up with the boys
[D]Waiting [Em]for the weekend to
[D]make [Em]a little noise

[Verse 2]
[D]Thunder [Em]is strong, l[D]ightni[Em]ng is death
[D]Kicking[Em] the girls and it's
[D]starting [Em]to blast
[D]Sweeter [Em]than the heavens and
the fate means stumble
But it's [D]Saturday [Em]night when
heavy rock was [B]born

[Verse 3]
Like [B]thunder and lightning
God damn, it's [D5]so ex[D]citi[B]ng
It hits you like a hammer
God dam[D]n

[Verse 4]
It was [D]Saturday [Em]night I was
ready for the dance
My girl walked in holding another guys hand
He stood [D]six [Em]foot six he
looked two miles wide
I was taking it easy till he took her outside

[Verse 5]
I was [Em]madder than hell fit to burn
This guy would break a leg before
but now he's got to learn
[D]Standing [Em]in the corner giving him a thrill
You can keep your lover honey,

[Verse 6]
but he's got to pay the bill
[B]Like thunder and lightning
God damn, it's [D5]so ex[A]citi[B]ng
It hits you like a hammer
God dam[D5]n
[D][B][C#5][D5]

[Verse 7]
Well [D5]the place [Em]started rocking it was Saturday night
I was dressed to kill I was
feeling [D5]alright
[Em]Alright in the middle of the night
I wasn't ready for a rumble
but the [D5]mood [Em]was right

[Verse 8]
When [Em]he got up to leave
I stood in his way
I said love that's the price
you have to [D]pay
[Em]In the doorway up against the wall
When they play a heavy record

[Verse 9]
then I'm gonna have a ball
[B]Like thunder and lightning
God damn, it's [D5]so ex[D]citi[B]ng
It hits you like a hammer
God dam[D]n[B]
