E
Well it was New Years Eve I was 14 at the time

I was celebrating 4 AM with them hoodlum friends of mine
          A
I heard a boy named Elvis Presley
                                       E
Singing That's Alright Mama on the radio and it turned me on
          B7              A                                E
I've been hooked on music hooked on music from that moment on

[Verse 2]
E
Well all my friends thought I had one brick less than a load

Cause I'd stop the car and I'd jump out and start dancing in the road
             A
When I heard Jerry Lee Lewis singing
                           E
Whole Lot of Shaking Going On it turned me on
              B7              A                                E
And I've been hooked on music hooked on music from that moment on

[Bridge]
         A
Well I'd steal them fancy hubcaps
                                E
Off them cowboy's pickup trucks fender skirts and mud-flaps
                            A
Anything to make a buck I'd sell 'em right back to 'em
                             F#
Out behind the rodeo just to make a little money
                              B7
To treat my little honey to a rock and roll show

[Verse 3]
      E
And I hung around that skating rink where Buddy Holly played
  E
I could not believe one man could have such fun
                          A
And still get paid then I heard that local DJ playing
                                E
That'll Be The Day it turned me on said turned me on
          B7              A                                E
I've been hooked on music hooked on music from that moment on

[Bridge]
       A
Well I finally got some tickets to see Elvis live and hot
   E
My girlfriend almost jumped my bones going back to the parking lot
  A
I knew that it was not my great physique good looks and charm
     F#                            B7
That left that Texas teenybopper's nail-prints in my arm

[Verse 4]
     E
So I bought myself a guitar and I wrote me a lady's song
      E
And I could change the name to fit my latest flame

And that sucker never came out wrong
    A
I'd sit back and sing it soft and low
                                  E
Watch 'em as it slowly turned 'em on I'd turn 'em on
          B7              A                                E
I've been hooked on music hooked on music from that moment on

[Outro]
          B7              A                                E
I've been hooked on music hooked on music from that moment on
