Verse 1
C majorC G+G
Naked telephone poles can't describe
DmDm FF
The way I'm feeling about you tonight
C majorC G+G
I'm on my back like an old brown jacket
DmDm FF
Like to stay in school but I just can't hack it
C majorC G+G
And I'm out on the street feeling like dirt
DmDm FF
I'm afraid to get married because I know its gonna hurt
(FF) G- C majorC
And I say

Verse 2
C majorC G+G
Well I dreamed I saw the king in a fifty three chevy
DmDm FF
Had a band on his mind and his hands looked heavy
C majorC G+G
And he rolled down his window I guess to say hi
DmDm FF
I couldn't see his face 'cause of the purple haze inside
C majorC G+G
And he was born to be the king - he was born to be the man
DmDm FF
And he died though he was holy - although I doubt he'd understand
(FF) G+G C majorC
When I say
Chorus
G+G DmDm FF
Oh oh oh - there's the last of the rock stars
DmDm
And me and you
C majorC G+G DmDm
Oh oh oh - rock 'n roll is here to stay
FF C majorC G-Am
But who will be left to play
C majorC A minorAm C majorC A minorAm .... (just keep playing this while he presents the band or he plays 'Shout')
Verse 3
C majorC
If it means guitar you gotta have it
A minorAm
And you got your axe and you got your group
C majorC
And your old man thinks its a waste of loot
A minorAm
And you wait all week for a Sullivan show
C majorC A minorAm DmDm
And you know that's just where you wanna go
FF
And you homework now is never complete
G+G
You don't care - cause you have got that beat

Verse 4
F-C C-G G-Dm
So a highdy hi and a heydy hey
Dm-F F-C
And a girls that home on Friday night and a boy that's out to play
C-G G-Dm
And some of us are masters and some or us are slaves
FF
And than there's that boy who knows he's gotta play
C majorC G+G
And a messy desk drawer full of broken strings
DmDm FF
You know these kids and you know of those things
Chorus
G+G DmDm FF
Oh oh oh - there's the last of the rock stars
(FF)
And me and you
C majorC G+G DmDm FF
Oh oh oh - rock 'n roll is here to stay
