A
Riding down the highway
Going to a show
Stop in all the by-ways
Playing rock 'n' roll
Getting robbed
Getting stoned
Getting beat up
Broken boned
Getting had
Getting took
I tell you folks, it's harder than it looks

Chorus:
It's a Along way to the Gtop if you wanDna rock 'n' Aroll	x 2
If you Athink it's easy doing one night stands D
Try playing in a rock 'n' roll band
It's a Glong way to the Dtop if you wanna to rock 'n' Aroll

Break:
A
G D A	x 4

A						Quiet
Hotel, motel
Make you want to cry
Lady do the hard sell
Know the reason why
Getting old					Heavy
Getting grey
Getting ripped off
Under paid
Getting sold
Second hand
That's how it goes, playing in a band

Chorus:
It's a Along way to the Gtop if you wanDna rock 'n' Aroll	x 2
If you Awanna be a star of stage and screen D
Look out, it's rough and mean
It's a Glong way to the Dtop if you wanna to rock 'n' Aroll	x 4

It's a long way				Repeat & ad-lib


The System:

The spacing of the notes kind of reflects the timing of the song, but not
very well.
