Flying Saucers, Rock and Roll

Informal Bootleg: Laura Palmer
Laura Palmer

Chords

[Ok, Laura here we go now]


F
Well, the news of the saucer went a flying around

Saw one landing and it sat there on the ground

The first thing that happens when the space ship lands

Guys jumped out and they started up the band
Bb
Flying saucers, rock and roll

(Broken string, pardon me Laura)
F
Flying saucers, rock and roll
          C
You know I couldn't understand

[Look I better repair this string, its gonna sound terrible
Just a second]

[Ok, all right Laura See that? 
I put a new string on the guitar 
Now you get to hear my terrific version of "Flying Saucers, Rock and Roll" 
Which is an old rock and roll song from 1957 which this guy named Billy lee Riley did]

F
Well the news of the saucer went a flyin around

Saw one landing and it sat there on the ground

The first thing that happens when the space ship lands

Guys jumped out and they started the band
Bb
Flying saucers, rock and roll
F
Flying saucers, rock and roll
      C
Well I couldn't understand
Bb
Anything they said
         F
But their rock and roll beat

Is just stopping me dead


F
Well there were the saucer men sitting on the ground

Lead guitar player was dancing all around

Turned the treble up on the fender stratocaster

Played it real fast

Then he played it even faster
Bb
Flying saucers, rock and roll
F
Flying saucers, rock and roll
          C
You know I couldn't understand
Bb
Anything they said
         F
But their rock and roll beat

Is just knocking me dead


F
Well I came out of hiding and I started to rock

Little green men taught me how to do the bop

Taught me how once, taught me how twice

Little green guys they were acting real nice
Bb
Flying saucers, rock and roll
F
Flying saucers, rock and roll
          C
You know I couldn't understand
Bb
Anything they said
         F
But their rock and roll Martian beat

Is just stopping me dead

Little green guys they were acting real nice
Flying saucers, rock and roll
Flying saucers, rock and roll
You know I couldn't understand
Anything they said
But their rock and roll beat
Is just stopping me dead
