(Intro) GbEbAb
(Verse 1)
AbDbEbAb
When I get off of work on Friday... after working like a dog all week
DbEbAb
I go to meet the boys for a cold one... at a little joint up the street
DbEbAb
They got a jukebox in the corner... full of old country tunes
DbEbAb
Feed it five dollars worth of quarters... is the first thing I always do
(Chorus 1)
Db
'Cause I need a little twang
AbA little hillbilly... bending on some guitar... strings
Db
Some peddle steel whining like a whistle of an old freight... train
Eb
To get that foot stomping honkey tonkin' feelin' flowin' through my veins
AbDbGbEbAb
I need a little... twang... twang... twa...a...ang

(Verse 2)
ADEA
Well I like a lot of kinds of music... I try to keep an open mind
DEA
Depending on the mood to strike me... If I'm gonna stay till closing time
DEA
So when I wanna lift my spirits... to get me feeling worth a dang
DEA
I know I'm gonna have to hear it... 'cause I gotta have some Hank to hang
(Chorus 2)
