Rocking My Life Away

	  		
G 
Fourteen ninety-five and nineteen forty eight 

I threw a rockabilly party on my last birthday 
           C                    G 
And it was good rocking my life away 
         D7 
I been a moving and a grooving 
                              G 
And getting it both night and day 

I got a gal called Nelly she's a chilly pepper hot 

She knows how to roll really knows how to rock 
    C                       G 
I'm rocking rocking my life away 
          D7 
I like to boogie woogie baby  
                               G 
I like to do it both night and day 

Streamline fleetline military brass 

She knows the general's daughter but the Killer's top brass  
        C                            G 
And I'm rocking yeah rocking my life away 
       D7 
I been a-moving and a-grooving 
                               G 
And I'm rocking both night and day 

Well come on baby you know what I mean 

I like the way that you shake that thing 
        C                       G 
And I'm rocking rocking my life away 
       D7 
I been a-moving and a-grooving 
                             G 
And boogieing both night and day 

         C                       G 
I'm just rocking rolling my life away 
         C                       G
