written and performed by Chuck Berry

A7

Just let me hear some of that...

CHORUS:

D

Rock and roll music

Any old way you choose it

G

It's got a back beat, you can't lose it

D

Any old time you use it

A7

It's gotta be rock and roll music

D

If you wanna dance with me

A7 D

If you wanna dance with me

Verse 1:

A

I have no kick against modern jazz

A7 D

Unless you try to play it too darn fast

G

I lose the beauty of a melody

A7

Until it sounds just like a symphony

That's why I go for that...

(chorus)

Verse 2:

I took my love on over 'cross the tracks

So she could hear a man a-wailin' sax

I must admit they had a rockin' band

And they were blowin' like a hurrican'

That's why I go for that...

(chorus)

Verse 3:

Way down south they gave a jubilee

And Georgia folks, they had a jamboree

They're drinkin' home brew from a wooden cup

The folks dancin' got all shook up

And started playin' that...

(chorus)

Verse 4:

Don't get to hear 'em play a tango

I'm in no mood to take a mambo

It's way too early for the congo

So keep on rockin' that piano

So I can hear some of that...

(chorus)

Enjoy!
