Rock N' Roll Is A Vicious Game

G                           C                   G               C
He rocked his way through yesterday, lord he thought he had a chance
G                      C                 Am       D
He played guitar and wrote some tunes, of love and romance
  Am                  D                G             C
He did his share of travelin', like a dog without a home
                     D             G                Em
A fugitive who would rather give, a star that never shone

           Am    D                 Am  D
Isn't it a pity,      isn't it a shame
             Am
No one ever warned the boy
         D           C     G   D   C    G    D   C
Rock n' roll is a vicious game,                     oh yeah

   G                  C               G                C
He said he wouldn't get led around, or caught up in the games
    G           C            Am            D
Or end up in a gallery, of faces with no names

     Am                D                G            C
And rock 'n' roll was in his soul, and music was a friend
    Am                          D                     G            Em
He recorded a song that made us sing along, and he was on the road again

            Am    D            Am D
Isn't it a pity, isn't it a shame
             Am
No one ever warned the boy
          D          C     G   D  C G   D
Rock n' roll is a vicious game, oh oh, oh yeah, oh oh

                        D              C
Stage fright, ooh, and long black limousines
      F                C                D
He's pushing himself a way too hard, or so it seems

G                 C               G              C
He opened up his heart to us, he gave us what he could
 G                   C             Am               D
We symphathized and harmonized, he made us all feel good
           Am              D                     G              C
But it's funny how those things can change, and time can pass us by
Am                   D             G            Em
Songs that moved us so easily, no longer make us cry
                Am     D                  Am D
Now isn't it a pity,         isn't it a shame
             Am
No one ever warned the boy
         D           C     G     G  D   C
Rock n' roll is a vicious game, oh oh, oh
     G   G   D  C          G       G    D   C
Oh yeah, oh, oh oh oh, oh, yeah, yeah yeah yeah
       G                       D      C      G
