G       G    Dm           F        C
I was a city child with a dead-end smile

      Dm         F             C G
And a worm's-eye point of view

          C  A#           F           C
Oh I knew my way, I was a back-street stray

      A#     F       G
And I had my eyes on you
[Pre-Chorus]
D                                G     Em          D# A
Now I got this friend and he's a screwdriver-jiver

                           Em                 C
You know, some kinda automobeat on the street

D#          Am          E            C  A#
And he has converted me to rock'n'roll

Wanna tell Chuck Berry my news

      C         A#   F       C
I get my kicks outta guitar licks

         A#      F          G
And I've sold my steel-toed shoes
[Pre-Chorus]
D#        Am                     Em          C
Now I got this friend and he's a spider west-sider

D#        Am                G  Em                D#
You know, he's hung up on a protection rejection thing

Am                  G   Em        A#
But I have made him see the light
