                            G5
Up in the mornin' and off to school
                       G5
The teacher is teachin' the golden rule
                               C5
American hist'ry and practical math
                                G5
You're studyin' hard, hopin' to pass
                                       D5
Workin' your fingers right down to the bone
C5                                      G5
And the guy behind you won't leave you alone


                    G5
Ring ring, goes the bell
                       G5
The cook in the lunchroom's ready to sell
                               C5
You're lucky if you can find a seat
                                G5
You're fortunate if you have time to eat
                              D5
Back in the classroom , open your books
C5                                      G5
Bet the teacher don't know how mean she looks


                       G5
Soon as 3:00 rolls around
                       G5
You finally lay your burden down
                               C5
Close up your books, get out of your seat
                                G5
Down the halls and into the street
                                 D5
Up through the corner and round the bend
C5                          G5
Right to the juke joint you go in


                       G5
Drop the coin right into the slot
                       G5
You gotta hear somethin' that's really hot
                               C5
With the one you love you're makin' romance
                                G5
All day long you've been wantin' to dance
                               D5
Feelin' the music from head to toe
C5                        G5
Round and round and round you go

                       G5
Drop the coin right into the slot
                       G5
You gotta hear somethin' that's really hot
                               C5
With the one you love you're makin' romance
                                G5
All day long you've been wantin' to dance
                               D5
Feelin' the music from head to toe
C5                        G5
Round and round and round you go


                       G5
Hail, hail, rock 'n' roll!
                       G5
Deliver me from the days of old
                   C5
Long live rock 'n' roll
                                G5
The beat of the drums loud and bold
                  D5
Rock, rock, rock 'n' roll
C5                            G5
The feelin' is there, body and soul
