Verse 
G             C                G               C 
We are always trying to find a way to get back home 
G                  C 
Party like it was '99 
G              C 
Howling at the moon 
              D               C               G   C  G  C 
'cause we get loud, a little wild, when we go out 
G                  C               G             C 
Took a yellow taxi home that night after closing time 
    G                 C                      G               C 
And drove around with one headlight '??til the driver lost his mind 
               D              C               G   C  G  C 
'cause we get loud, a little wild, when we go out 
 
Pre-Chorus 
C                                D 
Forget about what they say when all is said and done 
C                        D 
We won't remember anyway when the morning comes 
 
 
           G                C 
When we go out, we can get crazy 
G          D 
We can go all night 
 G              C 
Everyone's our best friend 
 Em            D 
Everything's alright 
         G              C 
Let's go out, let's get crazy 
  Em         C 
Maybe's not allowed 
 Am                                     D 
Drop everything you have that gets you down 
                    G   C  G  C  G  C  D  C 
'cause we're going out 
 
Verse 
G             C 
Johnny met a girl one night 
    G               C 
And planned a night alone 
G                 C 
So we thought that we'd just drop by 
    G             C 
And let them both know 
                   D 
That we're gettin' loud 
         C 
A little wild 
                G  C  G  C 
So we all went out 
 
Pre-Chorus 
C                                D 
Forget about what they say when all is said and done 
C                        D 
We won't remember anyway when the morning comes 
 
 
           G                C 
When we go out, we can get crazy 
G          D 
We can go all night

Everyone's our best friend 
 Em            D

'cause we're going out 
 
Bridge 
   G               C                  G            C 
So if you want to stay out late and keep the town alive 
  G              C                      G               C 
Talk about the friends you've made and make some more tonight 
           D              C              G  C  G  C 
Let's get loud, a little wild, let's go out 
              D              C               G  C  G  C 
Yeah, we get loud, a little wild, when we go out 
 
 
           G                C 
When we go out, we can get crazy 
G          D 
We can go all night 
 G              C 
Everyone's our best friend 
 Em            D 
Everything's alright 
         G              C 
Let's go out, let's get crazy 
  Em         C 
Maybe's not allowed 
 Am                                     D 
Drop everything you have that gets you down 
 Am                                     D 
Drop everything you have that gets you down 
                    G   C  G  C  G  C  D  C 
'cause we're going out
