All Shook Up! One of Elvis‘ classic rock’n’ roll songs of the 50’s, composed once again by Otis Blackwell. This was a number one US hit for 8 weeks in 1957.
All Shook Up
A-well-a [C] bless my soul what’s wrong with me,
I’m itching like a man on a fuzzy tree
My friends say I’m acting queer as a bug. I’m in love, UH! I’m all shook up!
Mm mm [F] mm, Mm mm [G7] mm, Oh-[C] woh yeah yeah!
–
[C] My hands are shakey and my knees are weak,
I can’t seem to stand on my own two feet
Who do you thank when you have such luck? I’m in love, UH! I’m all shook up!
Mm mm [F] mm, Mm mm [G7] mm, Oh-[C] woh yeah yeah!
CHORUS:
[F] Please don’t ask me what’s on my mind,
I’m a [C] little mixed up but I’m feeling fine.
When I’m [F] near that girl that I love best,
my [G7] heart beats so it scares me to death!
–
When she [C] touched my hand, what a chill I got,
her lips are like a volcano that’s hot!
I’m proud to say that she’s my buttercup. I’m in love, UH! I’m all shook up!
Mm mm [F] mm, Mm mm [G7] mm, Oh-[C] woh yeah yeah!
–
CHORUS:
My [F] tongue gets tied when I try to speak,
my in-[C] sides shake like a leaf on a tree
There’s [F] only one cure for this body of mine,
That’s to [G7] have that girl that I love so fine!
–
When she [C] touched my hand, what a chill I got,
her lips are like a volcano that’s hot!
I’m proud to say that she’s my buttercup. I’m in love, UH! I’m all shook up!
Mm mm [F] mm, Mm mm [G7] mm, Oh-[C] woh yeah yeah!
Mm mm [F] mm, Mm mm [G7] mm, Oh-[C] woh yeah yeah!
I’m all shook up!
