I wrote where the riffs begin and the repeat until another one starts VERSE 1 A Its a hurried up life But thats the life i chose No use asking me to slowdown Cos i aint got nothing to lose But time and time is all i 've got B You know i was born standing up with a guitar in my hand Im not trying to come on like hollywood But Hollywood is what i am CHORUS C D When we come into a new town Everybodys there When we play our music C Hand are in the air D When the musics over you wonder where we are Im standing in the silence With my old guitar. A Rock is my life this is my song VERSE 2 Its a crying shame But some of us have not survived No use in asking how it happened Very few are left alive B I just wanna keep on keeping on Your only as good as your last record I know that someday youll be gone CHORUS Lead break over Riff A (8) Riff C Riff D (4) CHORUS
