E D A A
[Verse 1]
E D A
A shoe shine boy gave me a nickel
E D A
With a smile on his face
E D
The school kids would give me some gin
A
If I would let them in
B C#m
They were shaking all over
[Verse 2]
E D A
Ran into a friend with a lonely lady on his arm
E D A
Woke up in my garage, I was holding my own
E D A
Can't remember where I'd been
B C#m
I was aching all over
A
From rolling on the stone
B
I was aching all over from rolling on the hard stone
[Chorus]
C F G Gsus4 G
Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a big boy
C F G Gsus4 G
Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a real big boy
C F G Gsus4 G
Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a big boy
C F G Gsus4 G
Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a real big boy
[Verse 3]
E D A
Kissin' cousins just ain't my style
E D A
Not like some knight in shining armor
E D A
Went touring with the sideshow that was my blow
B C#m
But we hung on for the fun
A B
Lots of fun for everyone
[Chorus]
C F G Gsus4 G
Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a big boy
C F G Gsus4 G
Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a real big boy
C F G Gsus4 G
Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a big boy
F
Ooh, what a night...

B C#m
[Verse 4]
E D A
Till the danger man with his danger plan
E D A
He took me aside and then he took me apart
E D A
I was a young man with love in my heart
B C#m
Oh, how he made me pay
A B
It was the hard way, It was the hard way
[Chorus]
C F G Gsus4 G
Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a big boy
C F G Gsus4 G
Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a real big boy
C F G Gsus4 G
Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a big boy
C F G Gsus4 G
Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a real big boy
C F G Gsus4 G
Ooh, what a night you can have when you're a big boy
