Down The Road Tonight Chords

(ver. 1)
Bruce Hornsby
[Verse 1]
          G     Gsus2
There's a place
        Csus2
A local roadside shack
             Em           Am7                D     Am7
A poor man's Paris with a parking lot in the back
          G    Gsus2
There's a girl there
          Cadd9    D
She knows how to unwind
          Em                Am7               D    Am7
She don't talk much but she knows just how to act
      Csus2   G           Csus2  G
I said -      Don't tell me she don't love me
    Em             Am7     D      Am7
The money's just a mere formality

[Chorus]
G       Gsus2      G
  Every day, Every night
           Cadd9     D                 Am7
Somethings going on, something's going on
         Cadd9      G    D
Down the road over yonder
G     Gsus2      G             Cadd9
  Any place, any time when I'm fading
   D         Am7
My love lies waiting
         Csus2  G     D
Down the road tonight

[Verse 2]
           G      Gsus2
When I was younger
        Csus2
All the older boys
                   Em           Am7    D    Am7
Would drive me way out past the county fair
G              Gsus2
They'd laugh and point out
     Cadd9    D
This roadside trailer
        Em                     Am7     D     Am7
And say something wild's going on over there
          Csus2  G
They said -      What they're doing
Csus2                G
  Don't mean nothing to you now
    Em                 Am7  D     Am7
But someday it'll mean everything.

[Chorus]
G       Gsus2      G
  Every day, Every night
           Cadd9     D                 Am7
Somethings going on, something's going on
         Cadd9      G    D
Down the road over yonder
G     Gsus2      G             Cadd9
  Any place, any time when I'm fading
   D         Am7
My love lies waiting
         Csus2  G     D
Down the road tonight

[Instrumental]
Gsus2   G     Gsus2     G     D     Am7     Cadd9
Gsus2   G     Gsus2     G     D     Am7     Cadd9

[Bridge]
G            Em            D
  There were movies in the parlor
          Cadd9            Am7
They were dealing one-eyed jacks
    Em7           Am7
And when I said I loved her
        Cadd9        D
She said - Just keep coming back.

[Chorus]
G       Gsus2      G
  Every day, Every night
           Cadd9     D                 Am7
Somethings going on, something's going on
         Cadd9      G    D
Down the road over yonder
G     Gsus2      G             Cadd9
  Any place, any time when I'm fading
   D         Am7
My love lies waiting
         Csus2  G     D
Down the road tonight.
         Em   D    Am7              Csus2
Yeah, my love lies waiting down the road - down the road tonight.

[Outro]
Gsus2   G     Gsus2     G     D     Am7     Cadd9
Gsus2   G     Gsus2     G     D     Am7     Cadd9
