[G] [C]
When I was forty years old, I just got away [G] from a barren slummy hole.
[F#] And [F] I came to the [F#] rock and [G] roll city where I'm [C] all born.
And the people on the street, everyone that I meet, [G] they all looked at me.
[F#] [F] And I took my guitar [F#] [G] and played some [C] rock and roll.
And I do it, I do [Am] it, I do it, I do [F] it, I do it.
[Em] Yeah, yeah, yeah, [C] I do it, I do [Am] it, I do it, I do [F] it, I do it.
[C] Rock and roll is my life.
And I came to New York, the very big town.
[G] It was so late and dark, [F#] [F] that I wanted to sleep [G] on a bench in the Central [C] Park.
But when I awoke, I got afraid to find [G] too many people stood around me.
So [F] I took my [F#] guitar [G] and played some [C] rock and roll.
And I do it, I do [Am] it, I do it, I do [F] it, I do it.
[Em] Yeah, yeah, yeah, [C] I do it, I do [Am] it, I do it, I do [F] it, I do it.
[G] Rock and roll [C] is my life.
[F] [C]
And I saw the greatest things my wife ever said, [G] and I wanted to go home.
[F#] [F] And I took my suitcase [G] and went alone to [C] my home.
And a knife was on the door, fell down on the floor, [G] and my family stood around.
[F] So I took my guitar [G] and played some [C] rock and roll.
And I do it, I do [Am] it, I do it, I do [F] it, I do it.
[G] Yeah, yeah, [C] yeah, I do it, I do [Am] it, I do it, I do [F] it, I do it.
[A] Rock and [C] roll is my life.
[Am] [F]
[G] [C]
[Am] [F]
[G] [C] And I do it, I do [Am] it, I do it, I do [F] it, I do it.
[G] Yeah, yeah, yeah, [C] I do it, I do [Am] it, I do it, I do [F] it, I do it.
[Em] Rock and roll is [C] my life.
