SCHOOL DAYS:Chuck Berry.
#1 R&B, #3 on Rock charts and # 24 in UK in 1957
 
[Intro]
 Daug  x 11 fast strums and then one on  G 
 
[Verse 1]
 G 
Up in the mornin' and out to school,
 
The teacher is teachin' the Golden Rule,
 G7                             C 
American history and practical math,
                                       G 
You study so hard and you're hopin' to pass.
                                       D 
Workin' your fingers right down to the bone,
 C                                      G 
And the girl behind you won't leave you alone.
 
[Verse 2]
 G 
Ring, ring goes the bell.
 
The cook in the lunch room's ready to sell.
 G7                             C 
You're lucky if you can find a seat,
                                     G 
You're fortunate if you have time to eat.
                                 D 
Back in the classroom, open your books,
 C                                  G 
The teacher don't know how mean she looks.
 
[Verse 3]
 G 
Soon as three o'clock rolls around,
 
You finally lay your burden down.
 G7                                   C 
Close up your books, get out of your seat,
                            G 
Down the halls and into the street.
                                D 
Up to the corner and 'round the bend,
 C                            G 
Right to the juke box, you go in.
 
[Verse 4]
 G 
Drop the coin right into the slot,
 
You're gotta hear somethin' that's really hot.
 G7                                   C 
With the one you love, you're makin' romance,
                                 G 
All day long you been wantin' to dance,
                               D 
Feeling the music from head to toe,
 C                            G 
Round and round and round you go.
 
[Verse 5]
 G 
Hail, hail rock and roll!
 
Deliver us from the days of old,
 G7                 C 
Long live rock and roll,
                                G 
The beat of the drums, loud and bold.
                     D 
Rock, rock, rock and roll,
 C                             G 
The feelin' is there, body and soul
                     D 
Rock, rock, rock and roll,
 C                             G 
The feelin' is there, body and soul
