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'
