Rock and roll music     (midi)

 

E   - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

    Just let me hear some of that...

 

   A

Rock and roll music, any old way you choose it,

                D                                         A

it's got a back beat, you can't lose it, any old time you use it,

       E                                         E7                                     A

it's gotta be rock and roll music, if you wanna dance with me,

E7                                     A

 if you wanna dance with me.

 

      - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -    E

1. I've got no kick against modern jazz,

                                           A

    unless you try to play it too darn fast,

                                                 D 

    and lose the beauty of the melody,

                                            E7             

    until it sounds just like a symphony.

 

     - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

    That's why I go for that...         + CHORUS

 

     - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -    E

2. I took my loved one over 'cross the tracks,

                                                  A

    so she can hear my man a-wail a sax,

                                           D

    I must admit they had a rockin' band,

                                                    E7

    man, they were blowin' like a hurrican'.

 

     - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

    That's why I go for that...         + CHORUS

 

      - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -  E

3. 'Way down south they had a jubilee,

                                                   A

    the Georgia folks, they had a jamboree,

                                                            D

    they're drinkin' home brew from a wooden cup,

                                     E7

    the folks dancin' got all shook up.

 

     - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

    And started playin' that...     

 

   A

Rock and roll music, any old time you choose it,

                D                                          A

it's got a back beat, you can't lose it, any old time you use it,

       E                                         E7                                     A

it's gotta be rock and roll music, if you wanna dance with me,

E7                                     A

 if you wanna dance with me.

4. Don't care to hear 'em play a tango,

                                               A

    I'm in the mood to take a mambo,

                                         D

    it's way too early for a congo

                                        E7

    so keep a rockin' that piano.

 

     - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

    That's why I go for that...         + CHORUS
