E
First time I heard the music
  Esus4             E
I thought it was my own
E
I could feel it in my heartbeat
E
I could feel it in my bones
E
My momma thinks I'm crazy
   Esus4           E
My dad says I'm insane
E
I got this boogie woogie fever
E
That's burning in my veins
      A
They took me to a doctor
    D/A                A
But it's too late for me
 A
Then dragged me to a preacher
          D/A           A
That they saw on their TV
           E
Who said that for a small donation
   Esus4               E
My lost soul would be saved
E
I said I don't think so preacher
E
I'll come back another day

Chorus:
A
All I want, is to be a Rolling Stone
B                                     C D# D C
They don't understand what we all know
    F
It feels so good that it ought to be illegal
   A#
I got my vaccination from a phonograph needle
     D#                     A#
I'll never grow up and I'll never grow old
  F
Blame it on the love of rock and roll

My teachers didn't like me
They tried to put me down
Because I wore my hair too long
I played my music way too loud
Every little boy wants to learn to play guitar
So he can pick up all the chicks
And be a rock and roll star

Chorus:
They said it won't last, but they misunderstood
If people think it's bad then I'll be bad for good
It feels so good that it ought to be illegal
I got my vaccination from a phonograph needle
I'll never grow up and I'll never grow old
Blame it on the love of rock and roll

  F                     A#
Blame it on the love, blame it on the love
    D#                             A#
Dad just don't understand what the little girls know
  F                               D#
Blame it on the love of rock and roll

D#     A#     F           C
All I wanted, all I ever needed
D#     A#          C
My guitar gave to me

Every song I've sung blame it on love
Every war I've won blame it on love
Everything I've done blame it on love
Blame it on the love of rock and roll

Chorus:
It feels so good that it ought to be illegal
I got my vaccination from a phonograph needle
I'll never grow up and I'll never grow old
Blame it on the love of rock & roll
Blame it on the love, blame it on the love
Dad don't understand what the little girls know
Blame it on the love of rock and roll
