    verse:
    B  
    Once upon a time not so very long ago
           E
    There wasnýt such a thing as a rockýn roll show
         F#                                      B      
    You had to sit at home and listen to the radio
      B    
    Then came a man with a rockinýguitar
     E
    Found himself a beat and he played it near and far
    F#                                                B
    Everybody danced and sang and let the good times roll


    Chorus:
      B  
    Again again again again
      E
    Again again again again
      F#
    Why donýt you do it
                          B
    Why donýt you do it again
      B 
    Again again again again
      E
    Again again again again
      F#
    Why donýt you do it 
                          B
    Why donýt you do it again
    
    verse:
    He travelled round the world in a rock-n-roll band
    He stood there like a giant with a guitar in his hand
    Everybody danced and sang and let the good times roll
    Nobody cared about the clothes he would wear 
    Nobody cared about the colour of his hair 
    Everybody came to see and let the good times roll 
     
    chorus.
    Again again again again 
    Again again again again 
    Why donýt you do it  
    Why donýt you do it again 
    Again again again again 
    Again again again again 
    Why donýt you do it  
    Why donýt you do it again

    verse:
    Now weýve got the rhythm in us now weýve got the rock 
    Time didnýt matter never living by the clock 
    Everybody came to hear him playing his rock-n-roll 
    Then came a line when the music didnýt rhyme 
    He couldnýt find the rhythm cos he couldnýt find the time 
    But still the people came to listen to the good times roll 
     
    chorus:
    Again again again again 
    Again again again again 
    Why donýt you do it  
    Why donýt you do it again 
    Again again again again 
    Again again again again 
    Why donýt you do it 
    Why donýt you do it again 
     
    chorus:
    Again again again again
    Again again again again
    Why donýt you do it 
    Why donýt you do it again
      F#
    Why donýt you do it 
      E                   B
    Why donýt you do it again
