Chuck Berry – Big Boys (Guitar)

C
When I was just a little boy like you

     C
I wanted to do things the big boys do

    F
Wherever they went you knew they wouldn't let me go

C
And I got suspicious and I wanted to know

      G
I was bright in school but my future looked dim

           C
'Cause the big boys wouldn't let me party with them

C                         C
Yes, yes - I didn't cry - yes, yes - and you know why

F
Yes, yes - I knew when and what

C
Yes, yes - no ifs, ands, or buts

G                                  C
.... I was looking for joy - yes, yes, yes, yes

           C 
When I was little bitty boy

    C
All of the big girls with their to

       C
When I ask 'em what's happening, nobody knew

         F
But when I found out where, what, when, and why

  C
I didn't let a single week pass by

         G 
Till the school dance when I first met you

       C
And I learned to party like the big boys do

C                         C
Yes, yes - I didn't cry - yes, yes - and you know why

F
Yes, yes - I knew when and what

C
Yes, yes - no ifs, ands, or buts

G                                  C
.... I was looking for joy - yes, yes, yes, yes

           C 
When I was little bitty boy

   C
If I would have known what makes a world go 'round

             C
I would have known what goes up must come down

   F
If you love me like I love you, 

C
Mademoiselle you chimboy woo

    G
The girls want to stay and the boys want to play

           C
So let's a rock and roll till the break of day

C                         C
Yes, yes - I didn't cry - yes, yes - and you know why

F
Yes, yes - I knew when and what

C
Yes, yes - no ifs, ands, or buts

G                                  C
.... I was looking for joy - yes, yes, yes, yes

           C
