E
A
E
A
I used to live inside a dark old tomb
But I banked and got myself
E
A
a furnished room
A
E
F#m
Because I didn't like sunlight
D
E
A
I might as well have dwelled in a lagoon
F#m
E
One night I heard some mu sic
F#m
E
A
With a mighty boun cing rockabilly beat
A
E
F#m
I ranted and said hi there
E
A
body wants to meet
Come and go
E
D
A
I'm singing like they do in Tupelo
E
A
I'm a rockabilly, count from down below
E
A
A rockabilly girl asked me to dance
E
A
I told her I was not good at romance
A
E
F#m
A little dance would hit the spot
D
E
A
And I'm the kind of girl to take a chance
E
A
I threw her in the air, above the floor
A
D
E
F#m
D
want some
E

A
that you should know
E
A
I'm counting all the days to come and go
D
A
I'm singing like they do in Tupelo
E
A
I'm a rockabilly count from down below
And the dances that we
E
A
did made me a wreck
And then she said, would
E
A
you kiss me on the neck?
A
E
F#m
so just like in the movies
E
A
gave her quite a peck
E
A
She pointed to a guy she called her lover
A
E
F#m
my poor head began to flip
E
A
and you're more like my brother
D
A
I'm singing like the ewing in Tupelo
A

D
E
A
F#m
E
I knew she had my heart,
A

F#m
D
E
A
but I kicked
E

And now they're settled down
E
A
and have no strife
A
E
F#m
they're happy with our bat s and bones
D
E
A
This Rockabilly Count has come to life
D
A
I'm a rockabilly cat that you should know
D
A
I'm singing like they're going to fallow
E
A

A
I'm a rockabilly cat from down below

low
Thank you.
