Rock 'n' Roll, and freeing your soul, and

Giving that heaven away 

Ab                                           Bb
I'm looking 'round for that sixties sound - 

               Eb
Those days are gone 

Ab                                                    Bb
And all us acid dropping, world stopping, be bopping 
Freaks are just hanging on
Ab
Little Nova, did you have to show the 

Bb                   Eb
Whole world how to rebel?

Standing there with your long brown hair

Like a cool breeze blowing through hell

Seems like the whole world's at a fire sale 

               Eb
But I might be wrong 

Ab                                                       Bb
With all the home shopping, Bling bling and hip hopping 
Maybe it's just going strong
Ab
But hey now Nova, we both know the 

Bb                           Eb
Ones who're always making it pay

Well any fool can sell a jewel

But an angel will give it away

And giving that heaven away

The two of us hot as a stove

Fools for pleasure, digging for treasure

Down in that Black Oak grove

Giving that heaven away
