[A] [C]
Well, there ain't no rules and [G] regulations when you're playing [C] rock and roll.
You've got your back beat in the driver's seat, you're rolling and it's out of [G] control.
[D]
Now [Am] they say that it's a young man's game, [F] and that it is how we're burning the flame.
But [D] they seem to forget who shot the rocket out of [G] the hole.
You've [C] got your young streets singing, burning up and down the [C] footpath all day.
You've got your metal on the back side, won't have another good [G] Monday.
[Am] There's still a lot of guys on the road, and [F] they're knocking down the back beat low.
[Eb]
We've [C] got 30 long years [G] of bringing people [C] rock and roll.
Rock and [F] music makes us whole, it doesn't matter [C] if you're young.
They love to hear [G] it on the radio, it gets your troubles [Am] [G] away.
[Am]
I'll tell you [F] what don't worry about me, the crazy [C] ideology
Since then [G] that rock and roll is [C] just a young man's game.
And if you're playing in a [G] coliseum or in a [C] smokey old pub,
Long as all the people are rocking there's a whole lot of shaking [G] going on.
[G]
When [Am] you're singing in harmony [F] and you're down on your bendy knee,
[Eb]
Throw [C] your guitar in the trunk [G] and drive your cat a lot [C] to the show.
Rock and [F] music makes us whole, it doesn't matter [C] if you're young.
They love to hear [G] it on the radio, it gets your troubles [Am] away.
I'll tell you [F] what don't worry about me, the crazy [C] ideology
Since then [G] that rock and roll is just [C] a young man's game.

Driving in my car, I'm trying to relax,
But those rock and roll critics talking [A] yak, yak, yak.
I'm here to tell you, if I don't say to hear that rock and roll music,
It's just a young man's game.
Driving in my car, I'm trying to relax,
But listen to those critics talking yak, [F] yak, yak.
