TITLE: Rock Around the Clock
Lyrics and Chords
[As recorded by Bill Haley and the Comets]
One, two, three o' clock , four o' clock, rock
Five, six, seven o' clock, eight o' clock, rock
Nine, ten, eleven o' clock, twelve o' clock, rock
We're gonna rock around the clock tonight
/ E7 - / / / B7 - /
Put your glad rags on and join me, hon'
We'll have some fun when the clock strikes one
/ E - / E7 - /
{Refrain}
We're gonna rock around the clock tonight
We're gonna rock, rock, rock, 'til broad daylight
We're gonna rock, gonna rock around the clock tonight
/ A7 - / E - / B7 A7 E - /
When the clock strikes two, and three, and four
If the band slows down we'll yell for more
{Refrain}
When the chimes ring five, and six, and seven
We'll be rockin' up in seventh heav'n
{Refrain}
When it's eight, nine, ten, eleven too
I'll be going strong and so will you
{Refrain}
When the clock strikes twelve we'll cool off then
Start a-rockin' round the clock again
{Refrain}
