C5                                                      G5
Write on, even though there's no one listening to your songs
Write on
C5                                                       G5
Shine on, get it together, let your light break through shine on
baby, shine on

C5                                                    G5
Write on, sitting on your own, waiting for the phone come on,
come on, come on
C5                                                             G5
Write on, for your fame and fortune will follow you, coming on strong
Coming on strong

Don't feel bad 'cos the radio ain't playing 'em
It won't be long til you're going out and slayin' 'em
C5
Shine on

F5
You're not the first, you won't be the last
                                          C5
To feel the frustration of a musical fast write on,
            G5
Baby, write on

N.C.
Sing your rock and roll with a touch of soul
Ballads with feeling, send your audience reeling
Rock on, rock on

F5
Find a man with a van, a back up band
Who'll give you a hand on your one night stand
C5
Rock on, baby, rock on

F5
Give 'em your licks, getting off on their kicks
Swayin in motion to a rhythmic potion
C5                  G5
Rock on, baby, rock on

Don't sign on the line til you know it's all fine
It's your life baby, you got to give it time
