VERSE 1:
Well [A#] listen everybody let me tell you about the rock 'n' roll
Oh [A#] feel that rhythm and it's really gonna thrill your [F] soul

It [A#] rolls like a train that's comin' on down the track
She rolled over Beethoven and she gave Tchaikovsky [F] back

When she [A#] comes around and I'm listenin' to the radio
She says you can't do that 'cos all I wanna do is rock'n'-[F]-roll
