Born To Boogie chords by Rod Stewart | (A Tribute to Marc Bolan)

[Intro]

C
 What you got?
C
 Born to boogie
 
 
[Verse]

         C
He stood five-foot-four
          C
But was a giant of his generation
        F
Just an Eastern kid
                              C
Who became a rock 'n' roll sensation
  G7
A dandy of a superstar
    F7               C
Who led a sexual revolution
            C
Now when he played guitar
                              C
He was a rock god, babyface assassin
          F                      
He wore a black bowler hat and a 
                          C
jacket made of cherry red satin
         G7
He was a hero of mine
       F7                  C
That's why I wrote a song about him
 
 
[Chorus]

F               Em          Dm        C
"Bang a Gong," "Get It On," "I Love to Boogie"
F                Em       Dm      C
"Telegram Sam," "Twentieth Century Boy"
F             Em        G                 
"Ride a White Swan" and "Children of the 
   C
Revolution," revolution
 
 
[Instrumental]

[Verse]

    C
Now when the lights go down and 

all the crowd is swaying
        F                     
Then he starts up "Jeepster," 
                  C
all the girls are screaming
 
Wow, they're screaming all right
       G7                      
If you ever saw this guy, then 
       F7                 C
you'll know just what I'm singing
 
Oh, Lord
    C
Now when I die, I'll be rocking up in 

Heaven beside him 

(Heaven beside him)
             F
We'll play a twelve part blues
                                  C
See if all God's children got the rhythm (Got the rhythm)
           G7
The little maestro was a genius
       F7                C
That's why I wanna sing about him (Sing about him)
 
 
[Chorus]

F               Em          Dm        C
"Bang a Gong," "Get It On," "I Love to Boogie"
F                Em       Dm      C
"Telegram Sam," "Twentieth Century Boy"
F             Em        G                 
"Ride a White Swan" and "Children of the, 
      C
of the Revolution," people

  C
I love to boogie
                C

          C
What a man, what a guy, what a star
         C
Marc the genius
