Standard (EADGBE)

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?

Ain't he strange?

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?

If I cried?

CHORUS

I said I know... it's only rock and roll, but I like it

I know... it's only rock and roll,

but I like it, like it, yes I do

Oh well I like it

I like it

I like it

I said can't you see

that this old boy has been a-lonely

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?

Ease your brain?

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?

He's insane

CHORUS, repeating to fade
