N.C.
Went to a dance lookin' for romance
Saw Barbara Ann, so I thought I'd take a chance
        C                 G
Barbara Ann, come take my hand
           D
You got me rockin' and a-rollin'
D7                             G
Rockin' and a-reelin', Barbara Ann
Ba-ba-ba-Barbara Ann

[Chorus]
(instrumental, same pattern as verses)


[Verse 2]

Tried Peggy Sue, tried Peggy Sue
Tried Peggy Sue, but I knew she wouldn't do
Barbara Ann, come take my hand
You got me rockin' and a-rollin'
Rockin' and a-reelin', Barbara Ann
Ba-ba-ba-Barbara Ann


[Chorus]

Rockin' and a-reelin', Barbara Ann
Ba-ba-ba-Barbara Ann
