The lyrics in this Chuck Berry classic tell the story of two young Cajun newlyweds and their happy life together. Such a great song ...and only two chords! Emmylou Harris recorded a fantastic version of this one. I’ve deviated from my rule of only uploading songs from the 1950s, since this one was released in 1964, but it’s such a great song ...well ...I had to. I was going to play this one without an instrumental break, but then decided to dub one on after I’d recorded the guitar/vocals video. ’You Never Can Tell’ was used in a famous scene in the Quentin Tarantino film, ’Pulp Fiction’, when John Travolta and Uma Thurman’s characters compete in a twisting dance competition. Here’s how I play the intro to this song: G e----------12-------12-------11-------10-----|----------8-----------3----- b----------------------------------------------------|-----------------------0----- d---/12-------12-------11-------10----------|-----9----------------0----- g----------------------------------------------------|-----------------------0----- a----------------------------------------------------|-----------------------2----- e----------------------------------------------------|-----------------------3----- sl.
