Chuck Berry - School days

^GUp in the mornin' and out to school, The teacher is teachin' the Golden Rule, ^G7American history and practical ^Cmath, You study 'em hard and hopin' to ^Gpass. Workin' your fingers right down to the ^Dbone, And the guy behind you won't leave you ^Galone.

^GRing, ring goes the bell. The cook in the lunch room's ready to sell. ^G7You're lucky if you can find a ^Cseat, You're fortunate if you have time to ^Geat. Back in the classroom, open your ^Dbooks, Gee, but the teacher don't know how mean she ^Glooks.

^GSoon as three o'clock rolls around, You finally lay your burden down. ^G7Close up your books, get out of your ^Cseat, Down the halls and into the ^Gstreet. Up to the corner and 'round the ^Dbend, Right to the juke joint, you go ^Gin.

^GDrop the coin right into the slot, You're gotta hear somethin' that's really hot. ^G7With the one you love, you're makin' ^Cromance, All day long you been wantin' to ^Gdance, Feeling the music from head to ^Dtoe, Round and round and round you ^Ggo.

^GHail, hail rock and roll! Deliver me from the days of old, ^G7Long live rock and ^Croll, The beat of the drums, loud and ^Gbold. Rock, rock, rock and ^Droll, The feelin' is there, body and ^Gsoul.
