[A]
Open the door, baby, turn on the light
We're gonna have a party tonight [G] for a rocker
[A] For a rocker
I know it's late, you're already down
And you ain't ready for people [G] around
I'm gonna tell you something I [D] found out
Whatever you think life is [F] about
Whatever life may hold in [F#] store
Things [Em] will happen that you won't [A] be ready for
I bought a shirt so I'm gonna be the blue bright
I'm gonna dig it out, wear it tonight for a rocker
[Em] [A] For a rocker
For a rocker
[Em] [A] For a rocker
Don't have to change, don't have to be sweet
Gonna be too many people to possibly meet
Don't have to feed them, they don't eat
They got the power, smiles, and souls of [E] us
There's just one thing, one thing only
To escape living the lives [A] of the [Am] lonely
[G] [Em] [A] [A]
[Am]
[G] [A] [Em] [A]
Or [G] a friend of [A] mine
From the neighborhood
[G] Moving down the [F#m] line
Tonight he'll be gone for [E] good
Left arm is breaking, Danny's agreed
They got me this long-looking thing
Russell and Marty said
Let the drums roll
How long till the landlord [A] comes?
Don't wanna argue, I don't wanna fight
But there will definitely [G] be a party tonight
For [A] a rocker
[Em] [A] For a rocker
For a [Em] rocker
[A] For a rocker
[G] Till the morning [F#m] comes
Till the car [G] arrives
Till we kill the [F#m] drums
Till we lose our [E] lives
Hey Jenny, help pack your suit
We're going to do the only thing you can [A] do
For a rocker
