Strum
D-DU-UDU
 Just let me hear some of that rock'n'roll  music
 Any old way you choose it
 It's got a back  beat you can't lose it
Any  old way you use it
Gotta  be rock'n'roll music
 If you wanna  dance  with me
 If you wanna  dance  with me
 I got no kick against modern  jazz
 Unless they try to play it too  damn fast
 And change the beauty of the melody
 Until it's sounding like a symphony
 That's why I go for that rock'n'roll  music
 Any old way you choose it
 It's got a back  beat you can't lose it
Any  old way you use it
Gotta  be rock'n'roll music
 If you wanna  dance  with me
 If you wanna  dance  with me
 LOVER PLEASE:
Lover  please, please come back
 Don't take the train coming down  the track
 Don't please, no, don't leave me
 Don't leave me in a-misery
 You wouldn't ever come so near
 You wouldn't ever call  me dear
 Don't you know I'd die for you
 Now you're gone that's what  I'll do
Lover  please, please come back
 Don't take the train coming down  the track
 Don't please, don't, don't leave me
 Don't leave me in a-misery
 THAT'LL BE THE DAY:
 Oh that'll  be the day when you say goodbye
That'll  be the day when you make me cry
 You say  you're gonna leave, you know it's a lie
 'Cos that'll  be the day when  I die
You  give me all your lovin' and  your turtle dovin'
Your  hugs and kisses and your money  too
You  know you love me baby, but  still you tell me maybe
That  some day well I'll  be blue
 Oh that'll  be the day, woo-hoo
That'll  be the day, woo-hoo
That'll  be the day,
 'Cos that'll  be the day when  I die
 SINGING THE BLUES:
 I never  felt more like singing  the blues
 'Cos I  never thought that I'd ever lose  your love  dear
You  got me singing the blues
 The moon  and stars no longer  shine
 The dream  is gone I thought  was mine
 There's nothing  left for me  to do
 But cry  over you (cry  over you)
 Oh I never  felt more like running  away
 But why  should I go 'cos I couldn't stay  without  you
You  got me singing the blues
 WHEN WILL I BE LOVED:
I've been  made blue, I've been  lied to
When will  I be  loved?
I've been  turned down, I've been  pushed round
When will  I be  loved?
 LET'S WORK TOGETHER:
Together  we stand, divided we fall
 Come on now people lets get on the ball
 And work together,  c'mon, c'mon let's work together,  now, now people
 'Cos together  we will stand, every boy,  every girl and man
 Before when things  go wrong as they sometimes will
 And the world that you're travelling stays over  the hill
 Lets work  together,  c'mon, c'mon let's work together,  now, now people
 'Cos together  we will stand, every boy,  girl, woman and man
 YOU KEEP A KNOCKIN':
You  keep a-knockin' but you can't come in
 You keep a-knockin' but you can't come in
You  keep a-knockin' but you can't come in
Come  back tomorrow night and try it again
You  say you love me and you can't come in
 You say you love me and you can't come in
You  say you love me and you can't come in
Come  back tomorrow night and try it again
 LONG TALL SALLY:
 We're gonna have  some fun tonight
 We're gonna have some fun tonight
Everything's  all right
 We're gonna have  some fun tonight
 We're gonna have  some fun, having  some fun tonight
 LET'S DANCE:
 Hey baby wont you take a chance
 Say that youll let me have this dance
 Oh lets dance,  lets dance
 We'll do the twist  and stomp, the mashed potato  too
Any  old dancing that you wanna  do
 Lets dance,  lets dance
 Hey baby if youre all alone
 Say that youll let me walk you home
 Lets dance,  lets dance
 We'll do the twist  and stomp, the mashed potato  too
Any  old dancing that you wanna  do
 Lets dance,  lets dance

 (fast strumming the C then stop to go into NO PARTICULAR PLACE TO GO)
 NO PARTICULAR PLACE TO GO:
 Riding along in my automobile
 My baby beside me at the wheel
 I stole a kiss at the turn of a mile
 My curiositys running wild
 Cruisin and playin the radio
 With no particular place to go
 Riding along with my collar loose
 Still trying to get her belt a-loose
 All the way home I held a grudge
 But the safety belt it wouldnt budge
 Cruisin and playin the radio
 (no chord) G E - ("WANDERER" opening)
 With no particular place to go
 THE WANDERER:
 Well Im  the type of guy who will never settle down
 Where pretty girls are well you know that Im around
 I kiss  em and I love em cos to me their all the same
 I hug  em and I squeeze them, they dont even know my name
 They call me the wanderer,  yeah the wanderer
 I roam around  and round and round and round and round
 They call me the wanderer,  yeah the wanderer
 I roam around  and round and round and round and round
 I HEAR YOU KNOCKIN':
 You went  away and left me long time ago
 And now youre knocking on my door
 I hear you knocking  but you cant come in
 I hear you knocking  go back where you been
 I begged  you not to go but you said goodbye
 Now youre tellin all your lies
 I hear you knocking  but you cant come in
 I hear you knocking  go back where you been
 LUCILLE:
 Lucille  you dont do your daddys will
 Lucille  you dont do your daddys will
Aint  nothing to you but I  love you still
 I woke  up this morning, lucille  was not in sight
Asked  my friends about her, all their lips were tight
 Lucille  you dont do your daddys will
Aint  nothing to you but I  love you still
 GREAT BALLS OF FIRE:
You  shake my nerves and you rattle my brain
Too  much love drives a man insane
You  broke my will, oh  what a thrill
Goodness  gracious, great balls of fire
Kiss  me baby, it  feels good
Hold  me baby, well I  wanna love you like a lover should
Youre  fine so  kind
 I gotta  tell this world that youre mine, mine, mine, mine
I  chew my nails and I twiddle my thumbs
I  feel embarrassed but it sure is fun
Come  on baby, you drive  me crazy
Goodness  gracious great balls of fire.
