Verse 1
D 
I'm going out tonight to
find myself a friend
I need a welcome smile and
the grasp of an open hand
G 
Bm 
Gonna sit for hours in a small dark place,
G 
Bm 
D 
catch up with a long lost face
And talk about how long it's really been
I'm going out tonight with
perfume on my wrist
I'm need to find someone to
show me what I've missed
G 
Bm 
And when I see that someone sittin' there,
G 
Bm 
D 
gonna tell your memory I don't care
If he offers something more
A 
than just a kiss
F#m 
G 
Underneath the moon so bright,
D 
I wanna fall tonight
A 
G 
A 
Beneath a spell
F#m 
G 
Underneath the sky so clear,
D 
I wanna find someone waiting there
A 
Who used to know me well
D 
I'm going out tonight
without a chaperone
I'm gonna leave that meddling
heart of mine at home
G 
Bm 
Cause it don't like crowds or closing time,
G 
Bm 
neon blues or pickup lines
D 
It makes me spend my Friday
A 
nights alone
F#m 
G 
Underneath the moon so bright
A 
D 
A 
G 
A 
F#m 
G 
D 
A 
Underneath the sky so clear
D 
I'm gonna tell myself that someone I adore
Is the one I'm with,
ain't that what friends are for
G 
Bm 
G 
Cause my empty arms are open wide; I'm long on spite,
Bm 
and   short on pride
D 
And the old way isn't working anymore
