Outro 1
Well we were (D major) reelin' and a rockin'
all (E minor7) through the night
Yea we were (D/F#) rockin' at the opera house
un (G major) til the break of light
And the (D major) orchestra were playin'
all Chuck (E minor7) Berry's greatest tunes
And the (D/F#) singers in the chorus
all got (G major) off on singing blues
And (D major) as the night grew (E minor7) older
every (D/F#) body was as (G major) one
The (D major) people on the (E minor7) streets
came runnin' (D/F#) in to join in (G major) song
Just to (D major) hear the opera (E minor7) singer
singin' (D/F#) rock and roll so (G major) pure
I (D major) thought I saw the may (E minor7) or there
but I (D/F#) wasn't really sure (G major)
But it's (D major) al (B minor) right
(F sharp minor) (A7) (D major) (D major)
