E7

[Chorus]
                             A
Just let me hear some of that rock and roll music, any old way you choose it
          D                             A
It's got a back beat, you can't lose it, any old time you use it
E                                                    A
Gotta be rock and roll music, if you wanna dance with me
E                      A
If you wanna dance with me

[Verse 1]
                   E                                      A
Got no kick against modern jazz unless they try to play it too darn fast
                          D                                   E
And lose the beauty of the melody until they sound just like a symphony

[Chorus]
                        A
That's why I go for that rock and roll music, any old way you choose it
          D                             A
It's got a back beat, you can't lose it, any old way you use it
    E                                                     A
It's gotta be rock and roll music, if you wanna dance with me
E                      A
If you wanna dance with me

[Verse 2]
                          E                                        A
I took my loved one over across the tracks so she can hear my man awail a sax
                        D                                           E
I must admit they have a rocking band, man, they were blowing like a hurricane

[Chorus]
                   A
That's why I go for that rock and roll music, any old way you choose it
          D                             A
It's got a back beat, you can't lose it, any old time you use it
E                                                    A
Gotta be rock and roll music, if you wanna dance with me
E                      A
If you wanna dance with me

[Verse 3]
                         E                                   A
Way down South they had a jubilee, the jokey folks they had a jamboree
                                 D                                      E
They're drinking home brew from a water cup, the folks dancing there are all shook up

[Chorus]
                        A
And started playing that rock and roll music, any old way you choose it
          D                             A
It's got a back beat, you can't lose it, any old time you use it
E                                                    A
Gotta be rock and roll music, if you wanna dance with me
E                      A
If you wanna dance with me

[Verse 4]
                              E                                 A
Don't care to hear them play a tango and In The Mood they take a mambo
                        D                            E
It's way too early for a congo so keep a rocking that piano

[Chorus]
                        A
That's why I go for that rock and roll music, any old way you choose it
          D                             A
It's got a back beat, you can't lose it, any old time you use it
E                                                    A
Gotta be rock and roll music, if you wanna dance with me
E                      A
If you wanna dance with me
