Tom: E
     
     E
     If I could stick my pen in my heart

     I would spill it all over the stage

     Would it satisfy ya, would it slide on by ya,

     Would you think the boy is strange?
              A  G  E
     Ain't he strange?
     

     E
     If I could win ya, If I could sing ya

     a love song so divine

     would it be enough for your cheating heart

     if I broke down and cried?
          A G E
     If I cried?
     
          CHORUS
                 A                                        E
          I said I know... it's only rock and roll, but I like it
          A
          I know... it's only rock and roll,
                E        D        A     E
          but I like it, like it, yes I do
                  A
          Oh well I like it 
            E
          I like it
            A
          I like it
                 D         A
          I said can't you see
               D        A              E
          that this old boy has been a-lonely
     

     E
     If I could stick a knife in my heart

     Suicide right on the stage

     Would it be enough for your teenage lust

     Would it help to ease the pain?
               A G E
     Ease your brain?
     

     E
     If I could dig down deep in my heart

     Feelings would flood on the page

     Would it satisfy ya, would it slide on by ya,

     Would you think the boy's insane?
          A G E
     He's insane
     
     CHORUS, repeating to fade
