Three Chords Video (MV)

Grandpa Wilbur was the first to be saved
He traveled the country playing on the church stage
They'd pass the hat, that was all he was paid
He was a dying breed, long before his day, oh-oh
Mhm

Lights came up and he brought em' to tears
They run the aisle, talked in tongues and they cheered
They asked him how he did it, his response was the same
There was a little voice inside that kept on callin' his name that said

Give 'em three chords and the Holy Ghost
They'll start a-moving and shaking on the floor
Don't let up when they start to sweat
They'll be dancing all night long when revival hits

Now watch them dance
Go on and dance

Now Wilbur's gone, in the path that he charted
Now it's up to me, to carry on what he started
The message is different, but the chords are the same
Every night in the green room, hear him calling my name, he said

Give 'em three chords and some rock and roll
They'll start a-moving and shaking on the floor
Don't let up when they start to dance
They'll be waving and a-clappin' and a-shaking their hands
Oh yeah, there they go
They wanna feel the rhythm and they're ready for more
So give 'em three chords
Give 'em three more

Now watch them dance
Go on and dance
Go on and dance
Go on and dance, yeah

He gave 'em three chords and the Holy Ghost
I give 'em rock and roll
Don't let up when they start to dance
They keep moving and a-shaking and waving their hands
Oh yeah, there they go
They wanna feel the rhythm and they're ready for more
So give 'em three chords and some rock and roll, yeah

Woah, now watch 'em dance
Go watch 'em dance
Go watch 'em dance, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Give em' that organ, Rodney)
(Yeah)
