[C]I'm going down town tonight, I'm gonna find myself a d[F]ream[C]
I'm gonna dress up right, and be the best they've ever s[F]een
You can t[Dm]ell from their e[Am]yes, you can t[Dm]ell from their e[Am]yes
That they're ne[G]ver im[C]pressed, that they're ne[G]ver im[C]pressed
[Dm] [Am] [Dm] [Am]
They are u[G]sed to the b[C]est, they are u[G]sed to the b[C]est
[C]Going down town tonight[Am], going down town tonight[C]
Going down town tonight[Am], going down town tonight[G]
Why let them break you in with self-sophisticated praise
'cos when the cards are low you see the smile come on their face
If you speak the right words, if you speak the right words
They will hear what you say, they will hear what you say
They will take your attention, just take your attention
And then turn away, and then turn away
Going down town tonight, going down town tonight
Going down town tonight, going down town tonight
[G]Just one thing before you go my l[C]adies of the night
[G]Just one thing I have to say I've g[F]ot you, and you're
[G]Confident and debonair you m[C]ove between the stars
[G]Hungry for those staring eyes that f[F]ill your waking h[C]ours
Going down town tonight, going down town tonight
Going down town tonight, going down town tonight
Going down town tonight, going down town tonight
Your face is all run dry with all the echoes of the night
And so I'm home alone, I wash my head and hold on tight
If you speak the right words, if you speak the right words
They will hear what you say, they will hear what you say
They will take your attention, just take your attention
And then turn away, and then turn away
Going down town tonight, going down town tonight
Going down town tonight, going down town tonight
Going down town tonight, going down town tonight
Going down town tonight, going down town tonight
Going down town tonight, going down town tonight
Pretty much it...
