[D]
There's some friends that I know living in this town and I've come far to see them,
then I track them down.
[A] They live in a great house, painted white and [D] brown.
That's the chip for the maid and I packed up my guitar,
dropped my key on the counter, read it a card,
then [A] I hook up with them later and go [D] hit the bars.
[Em] I need a [D] big [A] weekend, [Em] [D] can't come [A] tonight.
[Em] Yeah, a [D] big [A] weekend.
If you don't [D] run, you'll rust.
Well, I may shake your hand, but I won't know your name.
The joke in your language don't come out the same.
[A] There's times when I'm down and there's nothing [D] to blame.
[Em] I need a [D] big [A] weekend, [Em] [D] can't come [A] tonight.
[Em] Yeah, a [D] big [A] weekend.
If you don't [D] run, you'll rust.

I can work, I can travel, sleep anywhere.
Cross every border with nothing to declare.
[A] You can look back, baby, but it's best [D] not to stare.
[Em] I need a [D] big [A] weekend, [Em] [D] can't come [A] tonight.
[Em] Yeah, a [D] big [A] weekend.
If you [D] don't run, you'll rust.
