Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]Kickin' at the gravel in
the parking lot
Runnin' cross the street to
the record shop
Talkin' to my buddy 'bout
some hip- hop tune
Hotter than a firework and

[Verse 2]
it's still June.
[D]
Sun's about to burn itself
right outta the sky
Guess we'll all be lucky if we don't fry
And the preacher's baptizing
at the river bend
Wash the dust off of Dixie
start all over again.
Chorus: It [G]was Saturday night

[Verse 3]
[G]
and I swore
[A]I'd never lea[D]ve her
We had [G]the Hossman blastin' on
the [A]radio re[D]ceiver
They say his[G]tory plays [D]tricks
she's a [Bm]real de[A]ceiver
[Em]She gave me something from
her [G]heart back then
Made me a true believer.
[D]

[Verse 4]
Yeah, and I believed every
little word we said
Whisper through
the sycamores in my head
Did we really drive her daddy's
truck across Dry Creek
Well, my hands started shakin'

[Verse 5]
as my knees went weak.
[D]
Then we pulled back in the woods
and shut the headlights off
Aw, girl how'd you ever get your hair so soft
I can't see what I'm doin'
don't know if I should
I can't see what I'm doin'
Lord it sure feels good.

[Verse 6]
Chorus: [D]It was
Sat[G]urday night and
[A]I swore I'd never [D]leave her
We had [G]the Hossman blastin' on
the [A]radio re[D]ceiver
They say [G]history plays [D]tricks
she's a [Bm]real de[A]ceiver
[Em]She gave me something from
her [G]heart back then
Made [D]me a true believer.

[Verse 7]
[D]
I'm [A]a true believer and I'm
lookin' for a sign
That [G]she can still hear this
[D]heart of mine
[A]Beatin' to the rhythm of the rock and roll
I'm a [Em]true believer that the
[A]girl's got soul.

[Interlude 1]
[A][D]
[A][D]
[A][D]

[Verse 8]
Now I'm [D]back in Alabama
by that river bend
Where that preacher's
baptizing his [A]flock [D]again
Now we had some bad
times and a little luck
And her daddy gave us that
old [A]pick- up [D]truck.

[Verse 9]
[D]
And we drove it on up to Birmingham
And we bought ourselves a pair
of matching wedding bands
Hey Lord, that was almost
twenty- eight years ago
And we still got the Hossman on
the radio.
Chorus: It was Sat[G]urday night

[Verse 10]
[G]
and
[A]I swore I'd never [D]leave her
We had [G]the Hossman blastin' on
the [A]radio re[D]ceiver
They say his[G]tory plays [D]tricks
she's a [Bm]real [A]de ceiver
[Em]She gave me something from
her [G]heart back then
Made [D]me a true believer.

[Verse 11]
[D]
True Believer.
A true believer.
She made me a true believer.

[Outro 1]
Yes, I'm a true believer...
[D][A][D]
[A][D]
