In the beginning there was nothing but rock,
Em
Then somebody invented the wheel

And things just began to roll
[Verse]

Did you ever hear a tenor sax, swingin' like a rusty axe
A7 G A7 D
Honkin' like a frog, down in a hollow log, baby, that is rock and roll
G B7 C
Did you ever hear a guitar twang, Jingy - jingy - jingy - jang
C A7 G E A7 D G
Ever hear those strings doin' crazy things, baby, that is rock and roll
[Chorus]
C G
That ain't no freight train that you hear rollin' down the railroad tracks
A7 D
That's a country boy piano man, Playin' in between the cracks
G B7 C
You say that music's for the birds, and you can't understand the words
A7 G Em
But honey, if you did, you'd really blow your lid
A7 D G
'Cause baby, that is rock and roll
