At the time that we were having this conversation, Chuck was still [A] alive.
It wasn't until [G] he settled for very long, unfortunately, but [E] he was still alive.
And he had just turned [N] 90.
And he made a new record.
We were sitting there wondering, what the hell does Chuck Perry sound like at 90?
That was [C] amazing.
[Eb] And we were [D] wondering, you know, this is Mr.
Rock and [F] Roll, after all.
[Ab] Has he got him laid back?
You [Ab] know, has he got him even reciting?
Ah, [E] that's [A] more fake.
90 years [Am] old, who is he?
And then Goody leans over and he says, hey, [A] he says, play Maybelline in a minor key.
I [Abm] don't think Chuck Perry ever played in a minor key in his life.
[Am] [G] So we fooled around with him 25 minutes or so.
And we just looked at [E] each other again and said, [Eb] okay.
