Status Quo - Anniversary Waltz Chords & Tabs

The Anniversary Waltz
Status Quo   


                            C                 
Just let me hear some of that rock 'n' roll music

Any old way you choose it
            F
It's got a back beat you can't loose it
                C 
Any old way you use it
 G   
Gotta be rock 'n' roll music
                         C
If you wanna dance with me
G                        C
If you wanna dance with me

                       G 
I got no kick against modern jazz
                          C  
But let's try to play it too damn fast
                          F
Change the beauty of the melody
                           G 
Untill they sounds like a symphony
 
                          C
That's why I go for that rock 'n' roll music
                       
Any old way you choose it
            F
It's got a back beat you can't loose it
C 
Any old way you use it
G                           
Gotta be rock 'n' roll music
                         C
If you wanna dance with me
G                        C      
If you wanna dance with me
