Ballad Of A Rock'n Roll Loser

Am Dm F G
         Am
from the bars of wisconsin

        Dm
to the clip joints of l.a.

          F
i've been killing time

       G                  Am
while trying to make this guitar gain

Am
there've been people who thrown bottles

              Dm
there've been people who thrown flowers

              F                G               Am
there've been people who just threw open their heart

       F                   C           Dm      Am
oh but rock 'n' roll's the only way to tell my story

      Dm                     G         Am
i'm a rock 'n' rollin' loser till the end

   F                   C           Dm      Am
oh rock 'n' roll's the only way to tell my story

      Dm                     G         Am
i'm a rock 'n' rollin' loser till the end
bridge: (Am   Bm)

Am
there've been clowns,there've been jokers

Dm
uplitter prostitutes and queers

F                  G                Am
we slowly dived together through the years

Am                              Dm
i've been turned out, turned on, turned around, turned down

Am                             Dm
i've been built up, beat out, set up, drinkin' my pot

Am Dm
i've been oooo hoooo hooo hooo
i've been oooo hoooo hooo hooo
solo: (Am Bm)
all the things that you see
all the sounds that you hear
they seem to have no meaning
when you're looking through a glass of beer
and you're tired, twisted up inside
you feel you don't belong
and the buzzman shouts
get up and son, sing one more song
well rock 'n' roll's the only way to tell my story
i'm a rock 'n' rollin' loser till the end
yeah and rock 'n' roll's the only way to tell my story
i'm a rock 'n' rollin' loser till the end
oh lord, a rock 'n' rollin' loser till the end

Dm               G              Am
rock 'n' rollin' loser till the end
rock 'n' rollin' loser till the end
rock 'n' rollin' loser till the end
rock 'n' rollin' loser till the end
