(In usual blues type rhythm, listen to the song for exact timing.)
Each verse/chorus etc. ends with a bass and 2nd guitar going down to G again for a
bar. Listen to the tune to see what I mean.
[Verse 1]
Just take those old records oCff the shelf
I'll sit and listen to 'em Fby myself
Today's music ain't gGot the same soul
I like that old time rCock 'n' roll
[Verse 2]
GDon't try to take me to a Cdisco
You'll never even get me Fout on the floor
In ten minutes I'll be leGavin' for the door
I like that old time Crock 'n' roll
[Chorus]
GStill like that old time Crock 'n' roll
That kind of music just sFoothes the soul
I reminisce about the Gdays of old
With that old time Crock 'n' roll
[Solo]

GWon't go to hear them play a Ctango
I'd rather hear some blues or Ffunky soul
There's only one sure way to Gget me to go
