Rock Roll

           A
When I was young, yeah I was young one time, we’ve all been young.
But, this one time when I was young my buddy gave me a tape.
         E
And it freaked me out.
E
I didn’t know what to do. It was like TNT. I was in my brother’s room.

A
And another time, different friend, different house,
different song, different band, he had real long hair,
                                                     E
pulled the record out, put the needle on oh yeah and freaked me out.
E
I’d never done drugs. I barely brushed my teeth.
E
I was on the floor all glassy eyed fucked up beyond belief.

       A
Who'da known, who'da known, who'da known, who'da known
         D                A
That it would be rock and roll
            E
That would terrify me
E
That would haunt me so completely

              A
Yeah you were there, summer-time, young love, halcyon days, elysian fields,
Marlboro reds, white car, blue eyes, cd in, cd in, cd in, a cd in a car stereo
        E
and it freaked me out, what he said about love. You were right there
E
I don’t know where I was.

A
How much do I owe my uncle? I expect it’s more than I can pay.
A                                                                        E
He gave us a tascam, some maxells, a shure 57 and a stereo delay and it freaked me out.
E
Yeah the hum and the hiss. We were only 16, thought we were the shit

       A
Who'da known, who'da known, who'da known, who'da known
         D                A
That it would be rock and roll
            E
That would terrify me
E
That would haunt me so completely
