Start Jamming...
And now folks, just like I promised you, here he is back again, Eddie Cochran, one of America's
top rock and rollers.
Eddie.
[A]
Well, I've got to get [A] over there and the machine when it comes to rock and she's a [D] queen.
Pull up the dance on a Saturday [A] night.
All alone where [E] I can hold her tight, but she lives on the 20th floor of town.
[B] The elevator's broken down, [A] so I walk one, two, five, three, five, four, five, six, seven,
five, eight, five, [D] more.
Up on the 12th, I'm starting to [A] drag.
Fifty-four, I'm already the sight.
[Em] Get to the top, [D] I'm too [A] tired to rock.
Well, she called me up on the telephone.
She said, come on over, honey, I'm all [D] alone.
I said, baby, you're mighty [E] sweet, but I'm in bed with my aching feet.
This went on for a couple of days, [C#] but I couldn't stay [A] away.
So I walk one, two, five, three, five, four, five, six, seven, five, eight, five, [D] more.
Up on the 12th, I'm already the sight.
[A] [E] Get to the top, [A] I'm too tired to rock.
Well, I sent to Chicago for repairs.
Till it's a fixed trauma using the [D] stairs.
Both of her and her [A] poor silly.
[E] And I'm a baby too much to wear.
[F#] I'm a corpse draped over a [A] rail.
But I climb one, two, five, three, five, four, five, six, seven, five, eight, five, [D] more.
Up on the 12th, I'm already the [A] drag.
Fifty-four, I'm starting to [E] sight.
Get to the [B] top, I'm too tired to rock.
[A]
[N] I don't understand.
Why does he want us to watch [F] him?
I can give you the dialogue.
[Em] Okay, so Jerry can't sing.
[Am] Well, that guy ain't got a trained voice either.
[Dm] And he's one of the top record stars in the country.
Why?
[B] Because he has a new sound.
[E] So Jerry has a [Am] new sound.
You cut a record with her tomorrow.
I don't understand.
[N]
