Chords

[Intro] A [Verse 1]
B C#m D             A
 Everybody talks sarcastic

     D             A
Everybody's in the know

          D                  A
I think I might do something drastic

        E            Bm     E        A
If they don't let me go away from it all

      D              A
But I can't afford a jet plane

        D               A
And the price of gas is high

          D                A
There's nowhere that I can run to

       E                Bm
When I feel so sick and shy

                 E            A
Gonna make a big noise to the sky
[Chorus]
A    C#m     D        E        A
  Teddy, I'm ready to rock and roll

A    C#m     D        E        A
  Teddy, I'm ready to rock and roll

    C#m    D            E      A
And if she smiles at me in the snow

   C#m    D        E              A
Baby, I'm ready to rock, rock and roll
[Verse 2]
      D                A
And I whispered that I loved her

       D             A
In the ancient photo booth

           D                A
She's just got one of those faces

       E         Bm
That demands the truth

              E       A
She likes Ted Hawkins too

        D               A
And the truth is just a mole rat

         D              A
Crawling underneath the earth

      D              A        E          Bm
It is naked and it's gnawing away at the world

                E           A
And it hurts so bad I could cry

         D              A
But they don't allow no crying

       D                      A
In the cold straight world of men

     D               A
So I build my little fortress

           E    Bm     E
'Til I can get even
[Chorus]
A    C#m     D        E        A
  Teddy, I'm ready to rock and roll

A    C#m     D        E        A
  Teddy, I'm ready to rock and roll

  C#m     D           E  A
I can see now, she is an angel

  C#m     D     E        A    C#m D
Flying in my bedroom window

E                     A      C#m D
I'm ready to rock and roll

E                     A      C#m D
I'm ready to rock and roll

E                     A      C#m D    A
I'm ready to rock and roll
