Intro--- Bb   Ab   Eb x4
[Bb]She hit town like a [Ab]rose in bloom
[Eb]Smellin' sweet, said sweet perfume
[Bb]The color faded and the [Ab]petals died
[Eb]Down in the city, no one cried
[Db]In the streets, the garbage lies
[Eb]Protected by a million flies
The [Bb]roaches so big
You know that [Ab]they got bones
[Eb]They moved in and made a tenement home

I said [Bb]nice boys
Don't play rock and [Ab]roll
[Bb]Nice boys don't play rock and [Ab]roll
I'm not a [Eb]nice boy!

Bb   Ab   Eb x2

[Bb]Sweet sixteen she was [Ab]fresh and clean
[Eb]Wanted so bad to be part of the scene
[Bb]She met the man and she [Ab]did the smack
[Eb]Paid the price layin' flat on her back
[Db]Wanted so bad just to please the boys
[Eb]Wound up being just a toy
[Bb]Played so hard burned her [Ab]life away
[Eb]Lies were told no promises made

You know [Bb]nice boys
Don't play rock and [Ab]roll
[Bb]Nice boys don't play rock and [Ab]roll
I'm not a [Eb]nice boy and I never was!

Solo--- Bb   Ab   Eb x4

[Bb]Young and fresh when [Ab]she hit town
[Eb]Hot for kicks just to get around
[Bb]But now she lays in a [Ab]filthy room
[Eb]She kills the pain with
A flick and a spoon
[Db]And in the streets the garbage lies
[Eb]Protected by a million flies
You know the [Bb]roaches so big
You know that [Ab]they got bones
[Eb]Moved in and made a tenement home

[Bb]Nice boys don't play rock and [Ab]roll  x20 end on Eb
