D         A7            D         A7         D      Am   B7
Saturday night is the loneliest night of the week,

Cdim    B+     B7   Em          C7          Em
'Cause that's the night that my sweetie and I 

         C7             Em     Gm  A7
Used to dance cheek to cheek.

              D      F#7      Bm
I don't mind Sunday night at all,

                  Bm7-5          E7  Fdim  F#m
'Cause that's the night friends come  to  call;

Fdim A        F#m7       Bm9   E9
And Monday to Friday go fast,

     A7      Em F#m  Em7
And another week is past,


A7  D         A7           D         A7           D    Am  B7
But Saturday night is the loneliest night of the week;

Cdim  B+  B7   Em          C7          Em       C7         Em   A7         
 I   sing the song that I sang for the mem'ries I usually seek.

         D       F#7    Bm                 Em7   F#7       Bm    Gm
Until I hear you at the door, until you're in my arms once more,

D        B7            Em7      A7            D    Bm   Em7   A7
Saturday night is the loneliest night of the week.


Last time:

 D        B7          Em7       A7            D    Gdim  D alt
Saturday night is the loneliest night of the week.
