(CN.C.)Round, round, get a round, I get a round, yeah.

Get a round, round, round, I get a round.

I get a (G)round

I’m a real cool head,

I’m mak in’ real (G)good bread.

I’m get tin’ (CN.C.)bugged driv ing up and down the same old strip.

I got ta find a new place where the kids are hip.

My bud dies and me are get ting real well known, yeah, the bad guys know us and they leave us a lone.

I get a (G)round

from town to town.

I’m a real cool head,

I’m mak in’ real (G)good bread.

I get a round.

Teacher’s notes

This arrangement is a great way to build confidence moving between six chords at a brisk 138 BPM, so start slow — try it around 90 BPM first and bump the tempo up only when your changes feel automatic.

Your left hand plays block bass patterns, which keeps things simple, but watch the transitions into F and E7 — those two aren't native to the key of G, so your fingers may hesitate the first few times they appear.

Drill those specific chord switches (G to F, Am to E7) in isolation until they feel smooth.

In your right hand, keep the rhythm steady and slightly punchy to capture that playful, driving rock feel; avoid holding notes too long or it'll drag.

The trickiest moment is usually the D7-to-Am move at tempo, so loop that bar a few extra times.

Once this clicks, you'll have a solid foundation for handling quick chord changes in any rock or pop song — that skill transfers everywhere.
