Long Before Rock 'n' Roll

Emi Ami

She said I like just lying on the bed

Beneath the ceiling with her head upon my pillow

D7

There's nothing as I'd rather do

Emi Ami

And I said I'd rather do it on the couch

Or in the kitchen where about

You seem so down child

D7

Like nothing could destroy your world

Emi

But I never ever wanted to

Ami

You never ever let me to

I would but you must wait 'til it gets dark

Emi

So what is it that you want me to

Ami

I can't make it even good for you

So play me some from 1954

Before Rock 'n' Roll

Yeah, before Rock 'n' Roll

Before Rock 'n' Roll

Emi Ami

Well later she came with flowers in her arms

And we can do it in the car my brother owns it

D7

The driver's seat is made for us

Emi Ami

And I said I'd rather grab a bite to eat

There is a dinner down the street

D7

Let's take it easy

And join this lovely harmony

Emi

But I never ever wanted to

Ami

You never ever let me to

I would but you must wait 'til it gets dark

Emi

So what is it that you want me to

Ami

I can't make it even good for you

So play me some from 1954

Before Rock 'n' Roll

Yeah, before Rock 'n' Roll

Before Rock 'n' Roll

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah

Lalalalalala...

Before rock'n'roll...

Lalalalala...

Before rock'n'roll...
