A list of April Wine music just didn't siim complete without this one.

Rock n' roll is a vicious game



INTRO: G,D,C    G,D,C 
 
G                                  C                         G                      C 
He rocked his way through yesterday, Lord he thought he had a chance 
G                              C                           Am                    D 
He played guitar and wrote some tunes, of love and romance 
Am                       D                    G                      C  
He did his share of travelin', like a dog without a home 
   Am                        D                 G                  Em  
A fugitive who would rather give, a star that never shone  
 
 
             Am, D           Am, D 
Isn't it a pity, isn't it a shame 
                     Am  
No one ever warned the boy 
            C          D            G,D,C 
Rock n' roll is a vicious game, oh yeah 
  
 
He said he wouldn't get led around, or caught up in the games  
Or end up in a gallery, of faces with no names  
And rock 'n' roll was in his soul, and music was a friend  
He recorded a song that made us sing along, and he was on the road again  
 
Isn't it a pity, isn't it a shame  
No one ever warned the boy                                           C     D 
Rock n' roll is a vicious game, oh oh, oh yeah, oh oh 
 


Em                            D                      C  
Stage fright, ooh, and long black limousines 
        F                       C                       D 
He's pushing himself a way too hard, or so it seems  
 


(harmonica solo) G,D,C 
 


He opened up his heart to us, he gave us what he could  

We symphathized and harmonized, he made us all feel good  

But it's funny how those things can change, and time can pass us by  

Songs that moved us so easily, no longer make us cry  
 


Now isn't it a pity, isn't it a shame  

No one ever warned the boy  

Rock n' roll is a vicious game, oh oh, oh  

Oh yeah, oh, oh oh oh, oh, yeah, yeah yeah yeah  

My my my, rock 'n roll is a vicious game, yeah  

Rock 'n' roll, rock 'n' roll, yeah, yeah, yeah, ooh
