ARTIST: Chuck Berry
TITLE: Rock 'n' Roll Music
Lyrics and Chords


Just let me hear some of that
{Refrain}
Rock and roll music
Any old way you choose it
It's got a back beat, you can't lose it
Any old time you use it
It's gotta be rock and roll music
If you want to dance with me
If you want to dance with me

(A7) / D - / / G - / D - / A7 - / - D / A7 D /

I have no kicks against modern jazz
Unless they try to play it too darn fast
And change the beauty of the melody
Until it sounds just like a symphony

/ A A7 / D - / G - / A7 - /

That's why I go for that
{Refrain}

I took my loved one over 'cross the tracks
So she could hear my man a-wailin' sax
I must admit they have a rockin' band
Man, they was blowin' like a hurrican'

That's why I go for that
{Refrain}

Way down south they gave a jubilee
I tell you folks, they had a jamboree
And drinkin' beer from a wooden cup
The folks who dancin' got all shook up

They started playin' that
{Refrain}

Don't care to hear them play tango
I'm in no mood to take a mambo
It's way too early for the congo
So keep on rockin' that piano

That's why I go for that
{Refrain}

If you want to dance with me
If you want to dance with me
