Rock N Roll Band

 
              B              E                        A  
Well.... we were just another band out of Boston  
On the road to try to make ends meet  
Playin' all the bars, sleepin' in our cars  
And we practiced right on out in the street - D,Eb  
No, we didn't have much money  
We barely made enough to survive  
            E                       F#                     A          B7  
But when we got up on stage and got ready to play, people came alive.      
 
C#m                       A  
Rock and roll band, Every body's waitin'  
Gettin' crazy, Anticipating  
E         F#       A     B7    E  
Love... and music, Play, play, play, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah  
 
Dancin' in the streets of Hyannis  
We were getting pretty good at the game  
People stood in line and didn't seem to mind  
You know everybody knew our name  
Livin' on rock-n-roll music  
Never worry 'bout the things we were missing  
When we got up on the stage and got ready to play, everybody'd listen.  
 
Chorus  
Playin' for a week in Rhode Island  
 
A man came to the stage one night  
He smoked a big cigar, Drove a Cadillac car  
And said, "Boys, I think this bands outta-sight  
Sign a record company contract  
You know I've got great expectations  
When I hear you on the car radio  
You're goin' to be a sensation!"  
Chorus - E F# A, B7 C,D E A E D A E
