NIGHTCLUB HEAVEN
(I WANT TO GO OUT TONIGHT)
WORDS & MUSIC: Earl P. Reinhalter
INTRO: E* (syncopated strum)
E* E(-5)*
I. it's getting dark behind the neon light
E*
like a velvet painting of a satellite.
E* E(-5)*
put down the magazine, it'll be there later.
E*
there's more to life than a full refrigerator.
D
CHORUS: I want to go out tonight.
A
I want to go out tonight.
D
I want to go out,
E
want to go out tonight.
D
I want to go out tonight.
A
I want to go out tonight.
D
I want to go out,
E
want to go out tonight.
INSTRUMENTAL: E (no 3rd) (melody played in octaves)
E* E(-5)*
II. as the walls begin to shrink
E*
and spiral like a roller rink,
E* E(-5)*
a record skips on the radio,
E*
the radio, the radio, the radio, the radio...
/// REPEAT CHORUS ///
/// REPEAT INSTRUMENTAL ///
G#(add+5)
BRIDGE: Lucinda stands motionless
with no less emotion
F#7(add4)
than the Bolshoi ballet.
G#(add+5)
her eyes will tell a story,
her voice will be the cast.
F#7(add4) Aadd9* E*
tomorrow she will go away.
E* C#m7/E
ENDING: cold inertia molds my ways
Aadd9* E*
like mountain springs in ice cube trays.
E* C#m7/E
when my life becomes December,
E/A
I need a summer to remember,
E*
need a summer to remember.
INSTRUMENTAL: E* - C#m7/E - Aadd9*
E* - C#m7/E - Aadd9* - E/A - E*
