Intro: E /// Fdim /// B7 /// /
E Fdim B7
Saturday night in Toledo, Ohio is like being nowhere at all.
E C#m
All through the day how the hours rush by,
F#7 B7 Bb7 B7
You sit in the park and you watch the grass die!
E
Ah, but after the sunset, the dusk and the twilight,
Fdim B7
When shadows of night start to fall,
E C#m
They roll back the sidewalks precisely at ten,
F#7 B7 Bb7-B7
And people who live there are not seen a-gain!
E E7 A
Just two lonely truckers from Kearny, Nebraska
B7 E E7
And a salesman from places unknown, (-es unknown)
A Edim E C#7
All huddled together in downtown Toledo
F#7 B7 E
To spend their big night all alone!
E
You ask how I know of Toledo, Ohio,
Fdim B7
Well, I spent a week there one day.
E C#m
They've got entertainment to dazzle your eyes,
F#7 B7 Bb7 B7
Go visit the bakery and watch the buns rise!
E F#dim B7
Ah, but let's not forget the folks of Toledo unselfishly gave us the scale.
[spoken] E C#m
“No springs, honest weight” that's the promise they made,
F#7 B7 Bb7 B7
So smile and be thankful next time you get weighed!
E E7 A
And live and let live, let this be our motto,
B7 E E7
Let's let the sleeping dogs lie (-ping dogs lie).
A Edim E C#m
And here's to the dogs of Toledo, Ohio,
F#7 B7 E B7 E
Ladies, we bid you good bye!
Note:
Maybe slide B7 chord up two frets to play Bb7 chord, that's how I do it
