As recorded by Cheap Trick (From the 1990 Album BUSTED) [Intro] A G F A [Verse 1]
A
When I drove into that parking lot

        D
For the first time peepers round was on the dot

       A
By the stink of that cop, ain't got a lot

             B                      E
Well we were lookin' for a place to play

   A
We high-tailed over to one-eyed Jack

       D
With a cheap guitar strung over my back

       A
Well I looked pretty nervous, I can't turn back

             E                     A
This guy was everything the driver said, yeah
[Chorus]
             D
Well we were all right

            A
We're gonna rock and roll tonight

    E
Hey knock, don't lean on the record machine

         A
Or mess around with the big red light

            D
Well it was all right

         A
We gotta rock and roll tonight

    F#m
And Bun E's on the ground

F#m
Goin' round and round

           E                              A
'Cause his baby's cut her jeans too tight
[Verse 2]
A
Well lazy Jack, doesn't move too well

        D
Play it back real loud, a real rebel yell

      A
Buy a rock and roll record and make it sell

          B                    E
I'm gonna make it to the top today

    A
Now I got pulled in some big demand

         D
And they all keep telling me be a one-man band

         A
Unless I get big stuff and a real cool band

    E                     A
And boy you gotta hear me play, yeah
[Chorus]
             D
Well we were all right

            A
We're gonna rock and roll tonight

    E
Hey knock, don't lean on the record machine

         A
Or mess around with the big red light

            D
Well it was all right

         A
We gotta rock and roll tonight

    F#m
And Bun E's on the ground

F#m
Goin' round and round

           E
'Cause his baby's cut her jeans too tight
[Guitar Solo] D A D E D A D E A G F A [Verse 3]
          A
Well they heard some sounds in the songs we wrote

        D
Welcome back by paying you note for note

       A
Been a long time playin' that rock and roll

      B                      E
Not a thing's gonna touch me now

      A
Gonna rock your town if anybody could

        D
Drive a big limousine down to Hollywood

     A
Even bought a nice home in your neighborhood

       E                         A
But we have to keep the curtains drawn

A
Yeah, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
             D
Well we were all right

            A
We're gonna rock and roll tonight

    E
Hey knock, don't lean on the record machine

         A
Or mess around with the big red light

            D
Well it was all right

         A
We gotta rock and roll tonight

    F#m
And Bun E's on the ground

F#m
Goin' round and round

           E
'Cause his baby's cut her jeans too tight

        D
We were all right

            A
We're gonna rock and roll tonight, rock and roll tonight

    F#m
And Bun E's on the ground

F#m
Goin' round and round

           E
'Cause his baby's cut her jeans too tight
