VERSE:
It's the mi[D7]ddle of the week

I'm just drivin' home
The s[G]un's goin' down and nothin's goin' on
They play "Wh[D7]iskey River" I turn it up
G
And suddenly it hit me how thirsty I was
It's only W[C]ednesday night gotta get up early
G
To tell you the truth I ain't that worried
'Bout th[D7]at right now
G
So I think I'm gonna head downtown and get loud

CHORUS:
Well it's [D7]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 --------

Well s[C]ome nights are made for stayin' at home
G
Sittin' on the couch and watchin' TV alone
But to[D7]night it sure feels like
G
We oughta be drinkin'

VERSE:
I[D7]'ll be dammed I'm not the only one here
G
Looks like the whole dang town's in the mood for a beer
It ain't the w[D7]eekend ain't even two-for-one night
G
Guess we're just drawn to that heavenly neon light
I might ha[C]te my job, what's your excuse
G
You've got a broken heart or you're just thirsty too
Could be a[D7]nything but whatever the case
G
I think we're all plannin' on gettin' shit-faced


CHORUS:
Well it's [D7]one of them nights
## G
Feels like we ought to be drinkin'
We gotta g[D7]et a little rowdy
G
Like we're livin' in a country song
Well so[C]me nights are made for stayin' at home
G
Sittin' on the couch and watchin' TV alone
But to[D7]night it sure feels like
## G
We oughta be drinkin'

INSTRUMENTAL & WHISTLE: D7 G D7 G

Oh, s[C]ome nights are made for stayin' at home
G
Roll a big fat one and watchin' Nashville alone
But to[D7]night it sure feels like
## G
We oughta be drinkin'

Honey ton[D7]ight it sure feels like
G
We oughta be drinkin'

Yeah ton[D7]ight it sure feels like
We oughta be drink[G]in'
