   E                  F#m7          B                  E
 1) Never thought I'd have a worry    or need to be alone
 2) Looking back it   can be funny    it can be very strange
 3) Rushing always    in a hurry      I tried to give it up

   E                F#m7            C                         F
 1) playing near or far too many          times I should have known
 2) never win or lose too many     you'll have to    rearrange
 3) everything we do is funny        it's  never good   enough

D        A                E
It can lose you all your sleep at night

D           A                 E
twelve bar blues is now alright

         D              A             E        F#m7 E/G#
Now it's up to you to try to find a reason to

A
rock 'n' roll in every song

B
rock 'n' roll in every one

        E
It's rock and roll and rock and rock and roll

                                           B       G#7/C
it's rock and roll and rock keeps rolling on

 C#m7              F#          B               F       (G#)
waiting all the time to find   radio plays on Caroline

A                B                  C#m
they say  you'll get there in the end

F#m7     B     E       C#m   A           Asus4    B        E
we can pray    what we say    makes a difference in the end
