Verse 

        G/B             Fmaj7 
Sitting up on the roof 
     G/B                    Fmaj7 
Sneaking a smoke by the chimney 
        G/B                     C          Fmaj7 
Checking out the moon and the city lights 
             G/B                    Fmaj7 
He takes off his flannel shirt and 
          G/B                     Fmaj7 
He drapes it around her shoulders 
      G/B                      C           
Slides up behind her and holds on tight 
             Am7       C/G                   Fmaj7 
And she says, 'I don't want this night to end 

Why does it have to end?' 



  G                    F                C 
Tomorrow she'll be rolling down I-10, Baton Rouge 
      G                         F 
LSU, eighteen years in her rear view 
G                  F                 C 
He's got a Friday pay-check lined up down the block at Daddy's shop 
G                             Am 
It ain't much, but it's a job 
                            C/G                D/F#   Fmaj7 
They've been dreading this moment all summer long 
                                Fmaj7  G/B   Fmaj7  G/B   Fmaj7  G/B   C 
The night before life goes on 
 


Verse 

    Fmaj7   Gsus4               Fmaj7 
Ooh, a tear falls off her cheek  
      Gsus4                        Fmaj7 
Right when it hits his arm he says 
        Gsus4       C                Fmaj7 
'Come on baby, lets get out of here' 
           Gsus4                         Fmaj7 
They take one last drive around town and 
       Gsus4                   Fmaj7 
Man it already looks different 
             Gsus4          C                 Am7 
He bangs the wheel and says, 'Life ain't fair  
                  C/G                     Fmaj7 
'And this growing up stuff, man I don't know 

'I just don't wanna let you go' 


  G                    F                C 
Tomorrow she'll be rolling down I-10, Baton Rouge 
      G                         F 
LSU, eighteen years in her rear view 
G                  F                 C 
He's got a Friday pay-check lined up down the block at Daddy's shop 
G                             Am 
It ain't much, but it's a job 
                            C/G                D/F#   Fmaj9 
They've been dreading this moment all summer long

The night before life goes on

             G/B 
Yeah, that's what my momma told me 
    Bb 
And just like those kids 
  F                      C 
I didn't wanna listen to no one 
              G/B 
Yeah, there's nothing you can do 
            Bb 
There's nothing you can say 
      Fadd9 
And I know how it feels when love goes away 


  G                    F                C 
Tomorrow she'll be rolling down I-10, Baton Rouge

It ain't much, but it's a job 
                            C/G                D/F#   Fmaj7 
They've been dreading this moment all summer long 

But here it is they don't have long

The night before life goes on
