[Intro]
| D | % |
 
 
[Verse]
             D
There's some friends that I know
D
Living in this town
         D
And I've come far to see them
D
Gonna track 'em down
     A
They live in a brick house
                  D
Painted white and brown
 
 
[Verse]
       D
Left a tip for the maid
      D
And I packed up my guitar
           D
Dropped my keys on the counter
D
Rented a car
      A
Gonna hook up with 'em later
               D
And go hit the bars
 
 
[Chorus]
         Em  D   A
I need a big weekend
G/D  D      A
Kick up the dust
       Em  D   A
Yeah a big weekend
       A             D
If you don't run you rust
 
 
[Verse]
       D
Well I may shake your hand
      D
But I won't know your name
    D
The joke in your language
      D
Don't come out the same
        A
There's times when I'm down
                       D
And there's nothing to blame
 
 
[Chorus]
         Em  D   A
I need a big weekend
G/D  D      A
Kick up the dust
       Em  D   A
Yeah a big weekend
       A             D
If you don't run you rust

[Verse]
      D
I can work, I can travel
D
Sleep anywhere
D
Cross every border
     D
With nothing to declare
A
You can look back babe
A                      D
  But it's best not to stare
 
 
[Chorus]
         Em  D   A
I need a big weekend

Kick up the dust
       Em  D   A
Yeah a big weekend

If you don't run you rust
