[Am]
[D]
I remember as a [Am] child I used to hear [D] music that they played on Riverfield.
Some called it folk, [Am]
some called it soul.
[A] People let me tell you [C] it was rock and roll.
[A] I was raised on rock, I felt a rhythm in my soul.
Every day when I got home, I turned on my [C] radio.
[E]
[A] Listening to the music that my [Am] eyes made, [A] I knew every single record the DJs played.
From honky tonk to [Am] howl, no does Johnny B.
Goode, [D] chain gang, love is [Am] strange.
I [A] was raised on rock, I felt a rhythm in my soul.
I was born to love the beat, I was made for [C] rock and roll.

Some thought it was a fad, [Am] thought it would [A] pass.
But the younger generation knew it would last.
Time's gone by, the beat goes on.
And every time I hear it, Lord, [C] it takes me [D] home.
I was raised on [A] rock, I felt a rhythm in my soul.

Beethoven's Fifth,

My papa loved to listen to [C] those country songs [D] while I was in the back [C] room, rockin' on.
