(D)Tell you a story not a little white lie
(D)Wasn't long tall Sally, it was no surprise that's right

(D)Tough act to follow ain't too good in your shoes
(D)A whole lot of shakin, it was terrible news that night
intro twice tell me that's right
second verse
All shook up and bent outta shape It was Johnny B Goode
But it sounded great that night tell me that's right
From the cabaret to the highway to hell, Had a monkey on his back
It was easy to tell that's right, tell em that's right.

I'm wishing to live longer, aided by the supreme healing force of music

intro
I'd have felt quite lost and distraught without those
wonderful vinyl productions
bridge riff twice
I'm convinced it's an addiction, too. I feel just great again
Thank you Geoffrey
fourth verse
We could see the train coming, it was long overdue
A tough act to follow, ain't too good in your shoes
That's right Tell me that's right
Life went from stumbling to tumblin down
Not a pretty picture when the body was found
That night Tell me that's right

Band was signing and playing a tune love comes a tumblin down
Tough act to follow ain't too good in your shoes
See the train coming it was long overdue
Johnny B. Goode, but it sounded great
Long Tall Sally, it was no surprise
Whole lotta shakin it was terrible news
Not a pretty picture when the body was found
Mama Mama Mama
