Chuck Berry, Rock And Roll Music (1957)
Key: :[D] (w: Chuck Berry)
INTRO:
[N.C.] Just let me hear some of that
CHORUS:
[D] Rock and roll music, any old way you choose it
It's got a
[G] back beat, you can't lose it
[D] Any old time you use it
It's
[A] gotta be rock and roll music
If you wanna dance with
[D] me
[A] If you wanna dance with
[D open] me
VERSE 1:
I have no kick against
[A] modern jazz
Unless you try to play it
[D] too darn fast
I lose the beauty of a
[G] melody
Until it sounds just like a
[A] symphony
[A open]
That's why I go for that
REPEAT CHORUS:
VERSE 2:
I took my love on over 'cross the tracks
So she could hear a man a-wailing sax
I must admit they had a rocking band
And they were blowing like a hurricane
That's why I go for that
REPEAT CHORUS:
VERSE 3:
Way down south they gave a jubilee
And Georgia folks, they had a jamboree
They're drinking home brew from a wooden cup
The folks dancing got all shook up
And started playing that
REPEAT CHORUS:
VERSE 4:
Don't get to hear them play a tango
I'm in no mood to take a mambo
It's way too early for the congo
So keep on rocking that piano
So I can hear some of that
REPEAT CHORUS:
