Verse 1
(A major) Say, Dad. Yes, kids?
We'd like to have a heart -to -heart talk.
Uh -oh.
Have you spoken to your mother yet?
No, Dad.
We want to ask you.
Well, I guess you're both old enough.
What we want to know is...
(D major) What did they do before rock (G major) and roll?
How'd (A major) they ever make it, (D major) bless my soul?
All day long they had to (G major) listen to
My (D major) time is your time
What did they do before (G major) Elvis' peak?
(A major) Maybe in the Navarone an (D major) d Friendly
All they heard on the (G major) radio was (D major)
(A major) When the blue of (D major) the night
meets the b -b -b -blue
I (G major) found some ancient records from (A major) 1945
I (G major) put a couple on the phonograph slide (D major) (A major)
Ha -ha -ha -ha -ha -ha
Oh, well, I thought I died
Now let me (D major) tell you, it (A major) was an (D major) awful sound
To hear what 27 (B flat major) cats were (D major) putting down
I (A major) couldn't be (D major) lieve my ears,
it (A major) was a (D major) shock to me
Cause (A major) (D major) all that they were (B flat major) playing
was (A major) the melody (D major)
They had a thing called swing,
(A major) they (D major) didn't have no beat
That ricky -dicky mu (B flat major) sic
never moved (D major) my feet
(B flat major) And (A major) then I (D major) played a record,
strangest thing I heard
I know you'll think I'm (A major) kooky,
but I heard his word
(D major) They didn't twang guitars,
I mean, like, it was sad
And (A major) tell me, (D major) what's a Hugo Winterhalter,
Dad? (A major) (D major) (G major)
(D major) (A major) (D major) (G major) (D major) (G major)
(D major) (A major) (E major) (G major)
(D major)
Oh well I felt so poor for
those (G major) old time souls,
(D major) they (A major) never had the benefit of (D major) rock and roll,
all they heard on the (G major) radio was
(D major) Ha -ha, boop -bow -dee -yay,
boop -boop -be -doop, ooh!
Oh, no!
