D
They took a pinch of rhythm and blues
D
Some boogie woogie and some country too
G
Some honky-tonk and juke joint beat
D
The kind to make you move your feet
A
A little touch of gospel soul
G D
And we all began to rock and roll
Chorus
D7
Rock, rock and roll
D7
Rock, rock and roll
G
Rock, rock and roll
D7
Rock, rock and roll
A
Even Gabriel blew his horn
G D
The day rock and roll was born
Buddy Holly and the Crickets were there
Little Richard with his lovely hair
Bill Haley and the Comets played it hot
Mr Bo Diddly gave it all he got
Chuck Berry did his old duck walk
When Elvis sang nobody talked
Chorus
Now they’re all in heaven where the angels play
You can hear the music any time of day
They got no haloes, they got no harps
Just that old backbeat with some flats and sharps
Eternal one-night stand
For the greatest ever rockin’ band
Chorus
