Conway Twitty - Saturday night special

^AWell, I was there to ^Gbuy a pistol She was there to hawk her r^Fing The b^Groker in the p^Cmawnshop Deals in almost any^Bmthing. ^FHell pay you for your misery Or hell ^Bmsell you someone's pain A Gm Cm B - G And that twinkle in his greedy eye Says your loss will be his gain.

^CmShe stood back in the shadows As the b^Bmroker dealt with me Her e^Gyes were dark and d^Cmesperate From some private misery. His words were so pr^Cmophetic When he said you^Fm got a steal I sa^Aid throw in one bullet ^Gmand you got yourself a ^Cmdeal.

Oh, a Saturday night special Is an e^Basy thing to buy All you ^Cmgot to be is twenty-one or f^Bifteen if you lie. Just ^Fmhand the man money And if some ^Cmones gotta die ^AThe broker in the pawnshop ^Gm won't even blink an^C eye.

Well, he handed me the pistol and I was a^Blmost to the door When I h^Cmeard him tell the lady ^BmSeven dollars nothing ^Cmmore. The l^Gady started crying as he took ^Bher wedding band Well, m^Ay hand was in my pocket and the ^Ggun was in my ^Chand.

W^Cell I was gonna use that bullet to end my life I was once someb^Gody's husband she was once somebody'^Fs wife. Well, I us^Cmually mind my business, but I ^Bmcould not walk away His do^Allars just weren't making sense^G and I knew I had to^C stay^G. ^D

Well, the brokers face turned pasty when he c^Caught my icy stare It would ne^Dver leave my pocket, b^Cut he knew the gun was there. I asked him what his li^Dfe was worth and he op^Cened up that drawer For a si^Dmmple golden wedding band ^A He paid $2000 mo^Dre.

That Saturday night was spe^Gcial even th^Cough it wasn't planned As ^Dwe walked down the sidewalk She rea^Cched and took my hand. We crossed the br^Gmidge and I took that gun and s^Dailed it through the air I said, Ever been to Texas? She said, ^AI think Id love it ther^De.

Oh, a Saturday night special is an e^Casy thing to buy All you g^Dot to be is twenty-one or fi^Cfteen if you lie But there's a p^Gmawnshop in the city, that used to ^Ddeal in everything Ha, but you cant buy a pistol there, ^A you cant hawk your wedding r^Ding...
