Capo on 2nd fret
                
 
A    
Just take those old records off the shelf    
                           D    
Ill sit and listen to them by myself    
                  E     
Todays music aint got the same soul    
                     A    
I like that old time rock and roll    
 
A                              
Dont try to take me to a disco    
                        D    
Youll never even get me out on the floor    
                      E   
In ten minutes I'll be leavin for the door    
                     A     
I like that old time rock and roll    
 
A                           
Still like that old time rock and roll    
                        D    
That kind of music just soothes the soul    
                     E    
I reminise abuot the days of gold    
                   A     
With that old time rock and roll    
 
A                                
Wont go to hear them play a tango    
                              D    
Id rather hear some blues and funky old soul    
                            E  
Theres only one sure way to get me to go    
                       A    
Start playing old time rock and roll    
 
A                          
Call me a relic call me what you will    
                            D      
Say I'm old fashioned say im over the hill    
                  E  
Todays music aint got the same soul    
                     A    
I like that old time rock and roll    
 
A                          
Still like that old time rock and roll    
                        D    
That kind of music just soothes the soul    
                     E    
I reminise about the days of gold     
                   A    
With that old time rock and roll
