Sam Cooke original song
[Intro]
D G D A D G D A7 D  A7
[Ritornello]
        D                    G 
Another Saturday night and I ain't got nobody  
D                            A 
I've got some money 'cause I just got paid  
D                    G 
Now how I wish I had someone to talk to  
D         A7    D   A7 
I'm in an awful way.
[Versetto]
D               A 
I got in town a month ago 
     D7                        G 
I've seen a lot of girls since then,  
           D 
If I could meet 'em I could get 'em  
       G 
But as yet I haven't met 'em  
       D              A7        D  A7 
That's how I'm in the state I'm in. 
[Ritornello]
        D                    G 
Another Saturday night and I ain't got nobody  
D                            A 
I've got some money 'cause I just got paid  
D                    G 
Now how I wish I had someone to talk to  
D         A7    D   A7 
I'm in an awful way. 
[Versetto]
D             A 
Another fella told me  
         D7                     G 
He had a sister who looked just fine  
           D 
Instead of bein' my deliverance  
    G 
She had a strange resemblance  
     D         A7     D     A7 
To a cat named Frankenstein.   ooh la
[Ritornello]
        D                    G 
Another Saturday night and I ain't got nobody  
D                            A 
I've got some money 'cause I just got paid  
D                    G 
Now how I wish I had someone to talk to  
D         A7    D   A7 
I'm in an awful way.

[Versetto]
D              A 
It's hard on a fella  
        D7                  G 
When he don't know his way around  
           D 
If I don't find me a honey  
   G 
To help me spend my money  
    D             A7        D   A7 
I'm gonna have to blow this town.  oh no
[Ritornello]
        D                    G 
Another Saturday night and I ain't got nobody  
D                            A 
I've got some money 'cause I just got paid  
D                    G 
Now how I wish I had someone to talk to  
D         A7    D     A7  B7 
I'm in an awful way.  Ahhhhh

          B7    E               B7    E 
I'm in an awful way, he's in an awful way.
