The Boys Are Back in Town G B
There was this chick who used to dance a lot
C E
Every night she'd be on the floor shaking what she got
B E
Man when I tell you she was cool, she was red hot
C D
I mean she was steaming
G B
That night over at Johnny's place
C E
Well this chick got up and she slapped Johnny's face
B E
Man we just fell about the place
C D
If that chick don't want to know, forget her
G G A C
The boys are back in town, the boys are back in town

I said the boys are back in town. The boys are back in town

The boys are back in town, the boys are back in town.

Down at Dino's bar and grill

The drink will flow and blood will spill

If the boys want to fight, you'd better let them
G B
That jukebox in the corner blasting out my favorite song
C E
The nights are getting warmer, it won't be long
B E
It won't be long till summer comes
C D
Now that the boys are here again
G G A C
The boys are back in town, the boys are back in town
G A C
I said the boys are back in town. The boys are back in town
After that you play the chorus a few times. Thats it!
