first verse

(D)Tell you a story not a little white lie

(D)Wasn't long tall Sally, it was no surprise that's right

intro twice tell me that's right

(D)Tough act to follow ain't too good in your shoes

(D)A whole lot of shakin, it was terrible news that night

intro twice tell me that's right

second verse

All shook up and bent outta shape It was Johnny B Goode

But it sounded great that night tell me that's right

From the cabaret to the highway to hell, Had a monkey on his back

It was easy to tell that's right, tell em that's right.

third verse -guitar solo

I'm wishing to live longer, aided by the supreme healing force of music

It definetly overcomes all weakening aspects of the body

I'd have felt quite lost and distraught without those

wonderful vinyl productions

bridge riff twice

I'm convinced it's an addiction, too. I feel just great again

Thank you Geoffrey

fourth verse

We could see the train coming, it was long overdue

A tough act to follow, ain't too good in your shoes

That's right Tell me that's right

Life went from stumbling to tumblin down

Not a pretty picture when the body was found

That night Tell me that's right

Band was signing and playing a tune love comes a tumblin down

Tough act to follow ain't too good in your shoes

See the train coming it was long overdue

Johnny B. Goode, but it sounded great

Long Tall Sally, it was no surprise

Whole lotta shakin it was terrible news

Not a pretty picture when the body was found

Mama Mama Mama
