Bm                              D
We ain't gonna be on Main Street
     G                       A
And you won't find us in the co-op parking lot
       Bm                              D
We're taking the night off the concrete
     G
And taking it out to a hilltop party spot
Bm7                                       G
Ain't gotta deal with a crowd or an open tab

But you might have to open a gate
Bm                               D       G
Ain't gotta be in a big town to burn it down

Yeah, you know what they say

Chorus:
               G
Where there's smoke there's fire
                            D
Where there's fire there's boys
               A
Where there's boys there's beer
                              G
And there's bound to be some green-eyed Levi's
           D    A                              Bm
Mama's got no idea she's out here and 'bout to see
some
 G                                  D
Blue-dream burning in the southern lights
           A                                 Bm
If you're trying to get to where we're at tonight
        G                                    D
Hang a left at the church, follow that dirt road
     A
And drive real slow
                  D   Bm D G
And look for the smoke

In the Fords and the Chevys and that one Mustang
With the doors wide open, bumpin' Marshall Tucker
We're slippin' in the dark to the riverbank
And one thing leads to another

Chorus

 G                     D
Cold cans and a Zippo lighter
A                      Bm
Sliding over, right beside her
G                         D        A
It's gonna be a here-all-nighter, here-all-nighter

Chorus

                        D
(Cold cans and a Zippo lighter)
              A
Look for the smoke
                        Bm
(Sliding over, right beside her)
         G
Right beside her
                           D
(It's gonna be a here-all-nighter)
  A               Bm
(Here-all-nighter)
