First saw him on a TV screen, little box black and white
G Am D7 G C
He made a sound I never heard before, didn't sleep that night
G C E7 F
He brings joy into my lonely life, like flowers on my windowsill
F7 C A7
And it ain't over 'til the fat man sing
D7 G C G
So, I'm walkin' back to Blueberry Hill
[Verse 2]
G C G C G C G
The way he sang about New Orleans, the way the band could play
C G Am D7 G C
Didn't go to work, went to the record store and I played that song all day
G C E7 F
It's hard to love a cheatin' wife, I feel I've been through the mill
F7 C A7
But it ain't over 'til the fat man sing
D7 G C
So, I'm walkin' back to Blueberry Hill
[Bridge]
F7
Ain't that a shame, she don't tingle when those cultured fingers
C
Lingers on those ivory keys
F7 D7
You're the one to blame, came home early from the money makin'
G C
There's a whole lotta shakin' goin' on with Jerry Lee
[Verse 3]
G C G C G C G C
Well, I take a bus to Louisiana, get back on my feet
G Am D7 G C
I play guitar in a cracker bar and I live down Bourbon Street
G C E7 F
Maybe I'll ring that Southern belle, maybe I'll find my thrill
F7 C A7
'Cause it ain't over 'til the fat man sing
D7 G C
So, I'm walking back to Blueberry Hill
Instrumental:
