VERSE:
D7
It's the middle of the week
I'm just drivin' home
G
The sun's goin' down and nothin's goin' on
D7
They play "Whiskey River" I turn it up
G ***
And suddenly it hit me how thirsty I was
C
It's only Wednesday night gotta get up early
G **
To tell you the truth I ain't that worried
D7
'Bout that right now
G **
So I think I'm gonna head downtown and get loud
CHORUS:
D7
Well it's one of them nights ***
## G ** E --------
Feels like we ought to be drinkin' B --------
D7 G --------
We gotta get a little rowdy D --------
G --***--> A -0-2-3--
Like we're livin' in a country song E --------
C
Well some nights are made for stayin' at home
G **
Sittin' on the couch and watchin' TV alone
D7
But tonight it sure feels like
G **
We oughta be drinkin'
VERSE:
D7
I'll be dammed I'm not the only one here
G **
Looks like the whole dang town's in the mood for a beer
D7
It ain't the weekend ain't even two-for-one night
G ***
Guess we're just drawn to that heavenly neon light
C
I might hate my job, what's your excuse
G **
You've got a broken heart or you're just thirsty too
D7
Could be anything but whatever the case
G **
I think we're all plannin' on gettin' shit-faced
CHORUS:
D7
Well it's one of them nights
## G **
Feels like we ought to be drinkin'
D7
We gotta get a little rowdy
G ***
Like we're livin' in a country song
C
Well some nights are made for stayin' at home
G **
Sittin' on the couch and watchin' TV alone
D7
But tonight it sure feels like
## G **
We oughta be drinkin'
INSTRUMENTAL & WHISTLE: D7 G ** D7 G ***
C
Oh, some nights are made for stayin' at home
G **
Roll a big fat one and watchin' Nashville alone
D7
But tonight it sure feels like
## G **
We oughta be drinkin'
D7
Honey tonight it sure feels like
G **
We oughta be drinkin'
D7
Yeah tonight it sure feels like
G
We oughta be drinkin'
