Birth Of The Boogie Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[G]Boogie, boogie woogie
The boogie- woogie- woogie beat
Down in Africa, many years ago
There lived a little fella named Zulu Joe
He took his tom- tom, a great big stick
And that was the birth of the boogie lick
Birth of the boogie, birth of [C]the boogie
[G]Birth of the boogie,
birth of the [D]boogie[G]
[D]Birth of the boogie, the boogie- woogie-
woo[G]gie [C]beat[Am][G]
[D][G]
Then Joe got hip and he started to sing
The animals flipped and
began to swing
Monkey, elephant, kangaroo
They all picked up on the boogie too
[D]Birth of the boogie,
[G]birth of the boo[C]gie
[G]Birth of the [Am]boogie,
[G]birth of the boo[D]gie
Birth of the boogie,
the boogie- woogie- [G]woogie [C#]beat[D][G][C][G][C][D][G]
Well, the animals a- boogied all
over the place
The rabbit spit in the bulldog's [D]face[G]
Joe kept a- beatin' till the early morn'
And that's when the boogie-
woogie was [G]born
Birth of the boogie, birth of the [C]boogie
[G]Birth of the boogie,
[C]bir[G]th of [C]the boo[G]gie[D][C]
[D]Birth of the boogie,
the boogie- woogie- woogie beat
[G]
