She said I like just lying on the bed
            G                             D
Beneath the ceiling with her head upon my pillow
        D7
There's nothing as I'd rather do
Emi                   Ami
And I said I'd rather do it on the couch
          G
Or in the kitchen where about
            D
You seem so down child
     D7
Like nothing could destroy your world

Emi
But I never ever wanted to
Ami
You never ever let me to
G                                      D
I would but you must wait 'til it gets dark
Emi
So what is it that you want me to
Ami
I can't make it even good for you
G                    D
So play me some from 1954

Before Rock 'n' Roll
Yeah, before Rock 'n' Roll
Before Rock 'n' Roll

Well later she came with flowers in her arms
           G                           D
And we can do it in the car my brother owns it
    D7
The driver's seat is made for us
Emi                   Ami
And I said I'd rather grab a bite to eat
           G
There is a dinner down the street
              D7
Let's take it easy
And join this lovely harmony

Emi
But I never ever wanted to
Ami
You never ever let me to
G                                      D
I would but you must wait 'til it gets dark
Emi
So what is it that you want me to

G                    D

Before Rock 'n' Roll
Yeah, before Rock 'n' Roll
Before Rock 'n' Roll
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
