ARTIST: The Rolling Stones
TITLE: It's Only Rock and Roll
Lyrics and Chords


If I could stick my pen in my heart
I would spill it all over the stage
Would it satisfy you, would it slide on by you
Would you think the boy is strange
Ain't he strange

/ E - - - / / / / AG E /
     
If I could win you, If I could sing you
A love song so divine
Would it be enough for your cheating heart
If I broke down and cried
If I cried

{Refrain}     
I said, I know it's only rock and roll
But I like it
I know it's only rock and roll,
But I like it, like it, yes I do
Oh well, I like it 
I like it
I like it
I said can't you see
That this old boy has been a-lonely

If I could stick a knife in my heart
Suicide right on the stage
Would it be enough for your teenage lust
Would it help to ease the pain
Ease your brain
     
If I could dig down deep in my heart
Feelings would flood on the page
Would it satisfy you, would it slide on by you
Would you think the boy's insane
He's insane

{Refrain}

And do you think that you're the only girl around
I bet you think that you're the only woman in town, oh yeah

I said, I know it's only rock and roll but I like it (3x)
I know it's only rock and roll,
But I like it, like it, yes I do
Oh well, I like it 
I like it (4x)
I like it, only rock and roll (to fade)
