---------------------------- ---------------------------- Chuck Berry by The Toasters Tabbed by: willemdekam Email: willemdekam@gmail.com ---------------------------- ---------------------------- Standard Tuning Ska strumming except for the the last time "You can keep dancing..." D D Forty years ago there was a Jumpin' Jazz Jamaica scene D A They could hear these tunes drifting down from New Orleans D G They put the two together in a thing they called Ska D A D And sent it off to England in the back of Laurel Aiken's car D D It was 1964 and the rhythm just wouldn't stop, D D A People banging on the door to hear "My boy Lollipop" D G Then the 70's came and with it the 2 Tone scene... D A D People shakin' their heads at the rudies on the record machine D D Now the 90's are here with the new bands bringin' it to you D A Skins and rudies-and even some punk rock, too! D G But the boys are still playing and the music is coming out live! D A D Down at your jukebox, dancing on a Saturday night! *piano solo same as verse* D D In their eyes where does Chuck Berry fit? D D A Well he influences the Ska, that's the long and the short of it D D G He played his guitar and they heard it on the radio D A D And the rest is history, just as everybody knows... D D Forty years ago there was a Jumpin' Jazz Jamaica scene D A You can check them rudies dancing at the record machine D D G The style is timeless, with Fred Perry and Doc Marten boots... D A D You can keep dancing, just as long as you remember your roots D A D You can keep rocking, just as long as you remember your roots D A D You can keep dancing, just as long as you remember your roots
