Version 3
Fairly easy song. The hammer on that is heard in the beginning is the bottom F# to a G in the G chord from
what I can hear. Same with the C chord except it is a B to C. This is my first tab so I know it will not
be perfect. The chords in the intro and outro are displayed by measures. So G for 4 counts, then C.
Key of G - Key change to A

Verse 1:
Saturday night and the moon is out just shinin' over top of the pines
I'm headin' on down to my baby's house gonna take her on a moonlight ride
Now I'm on these
backroads winding
up out of Kickapoo
Creek
Dancin' and singin' to some
good ol' boys like
me
Chorus:
Baby there's a
shoo
ting
star
That was for
me
and
you
So
hold me tight,
make that wish, and
pray that comes
true
I ain't
sure
of
much,
But
this
I
know...
I've got a
diamond in my pocket and my
baby's got a heart of
gold.
Verse 2:
I brought along a little courage and a Coleman cooler, just to help me out
My hands are shaking like a Cambridge rattler, nothin's gonna save me now
Might as
jump in head first,
lay it all on the
line
What am I
worryin' bout? Never gonna
be a more perfect
time

I've got a
diamond in my pocket and my
baby's got a heart of
gold.

Bridge:
Well I
didn't have money for a
Broadway show,
But the
crickets are singin' to the
radio
and we've got
tickets, on the very front
