Rock And Roll Music
(1957)
Chorus
Just let me hear some of that
| [C] Rock and Roll | music, | any old way you | choose it
It's got a | [F] back beat you can't | lose it | [C] any old time you | use it
It's | [G] gotta be rock and roll | music... | if you wanna dance with | [C] me
| [G] If you wanna dance with | [C↓] me
I have no kick against | [G] modern jazz
| [G] Unless you try to play it | [C] too darn fast
| [C] And change the beauty of the | [F]melody
| [F] Until it sounds just like a | [G] symphony | [G↓]
Chorus
That's why I go for that
| [C] Rock and Roll | music, | any old way you | choose it
It's got a | [F] back beat you can't | lose it | [C] any old time you | use it
It's | [G] gotta be rock and roll | music | if you wanna dance with | [C] me
| [G] If you wanna dance with | [C↓] me

You Never Can Tell
1964
It was a | [C] teenage wedding, and the | old folks wished them | well | [C]
You could | [C] see that Pierre did | truly love the madamoi- | [G]selle | [G]
And now the | [G] young monsieur and ma- | dame have rung the chapel | bell, | [G]
"C'est la | [G] vie", say the old folks, it | goes to show you never can | [C] tell
They furnished | [C] off an apartment with a | two room Roebuck | sale | [C]
The cooler- | [C]ator was crammed with TV | dinners and ginger | [G] ale, | [G]
But when | [G] Pierre found work, the little | money comin' worked out | well | [G]
"C'est la | [G] vie", say the old folks, it | goes to show you never can | [C] tell

| [C] When I was a | [F] little bitty boy

Deep | [C] down in Louisiana close to | New Orleans

There | [F] stood a log cabin made of | earth and wood

Go! | [C] Go! | Go, Johnny go! |
[C] Go! | Go, Johnny go! |
[F] Go! | Go, Johnny, go! |
