Rock and Roll Lullabye ( BJ Thomas )

C                                   F
She was just sixteen and all alone, when I came to be
G                G7     F                      C
And we grew up together, my Momma, child, and me.
C               			F
Now things were bad and she was scared, but whenever I would cry
G			G7
She'd calm my fears and drown my tears,  
       F		   C	
with a rock and roll lullabye.

C						F
And she'd sing: "Sha na na na na na na na, it'll be alright
F				   G       C
Sha na na na na na na na, now just hold on tight"
				   F 
Sing it to me mama (my, my, my, my momma)
			    G
Sing it sweet and clear, oh mama let me hear that old 
F		   C
rock and roll lullabye.


C				       F
Now we made it through the lonely days, but lord the nights were long
          G                      F			C
And we'd dream of better mornin's when momma sang her song.
				    F
Now I can't recall the words at all, it don't make sense to try
       G                   G7
'Cause I just knew lots of love came through 
          F                   C
with that rock and roll lullabye.

C						  F
And she'd sing: "Sha na na na na na na na, it'll be alright
F				   G       C
Sha na na na na na na na, now just hold on tight"
                                     F
I can hear you momma (my, my, my, my momma)
                                G
Nothin'; we might sing like that song of a good old
F                  C  
rock and roll lullabye.
