Guess who just got back today?

Those wild-eyed boys that had been away

But man, I still think those cats are great

They were asking if you were around

How you was, where you could be found
B E
I told them you were living downtown

Driving all the old men crazy
G G A C

G A C C C C B A
I said the boys are back in town. The boys are back in town.
G B
There was this chick who used to dance a lot
C E
Every night she'd be on the floor shaking what she got
B E
Man when I tell you she was cool, she was red hot
C D
I mean she was steaming
G B
That night over at Johnny's place
C E
Well this chick got up and she slapped Johnny's face
B E
Man we just fell about the place
C D
If that chick don't want to know, forget her

G B
Friday night they'll be dressed to kill
C E
Down at Dino's bar and grill
B E
The drink will flow and blood will spill
C D
If the boys want to fight, you'd better let them
G B C
That jukebox in the corner blasting out my favorite song
E B
The nights are getting warmer, it won't be long
E
It won't be long till summer comes
C D
Now that the boys are here again
G G A C
The boys are back in town, the boys are back in town
G A C
I said the boys are back in town. The boys are back in town
After that you play the chorus a few times. Thats it!
This song is using all power chords, its pretty easy, but a GREAT SONG!
Feel free to ask me any questions!
