[A] _ _ [C] _ She [G] _ _ _
was just 16 and all alone [C] _ when I came to [Am] be.

[C] but whenever I would [Am] cry,
_ _ [D] she'd calm my fears and dry [Am] my tears
[C] with a rock and roll _ [G]
lullaby.
And she'd sing,
Sha-na-na-na-na-na [E]-na-na-na-na
[Am] It'll be alright. _ _
_ _ _ [C] Sha-na-na-na-na [D]-na-na-na-na-na
[G] Just hold on tight. _
Sing it to me, mama. _ _
My, my, my, [Am] my, my. _ _ _

_ _ We made it through the lonely days,
[C] but, Lord, the [Am] nights were long
_ [D] and we'd dream of better mornings
_ [C] when mama sang her [G]
songs.
_ Now I can't recall the words at all,
[C] if they make sense to try,
[Am] _ _ _ [Bm] cause I [D] just knew lots of love came through
[C] in that rock and roll [G]
lullaby.
And she'd sing,
Sha-na-na-na-na-na-na-na-na
[Am] It'll be alright. _
