| I came into town as a | man of renown |
| G | D | |
| A writer of songs about fr | eedom and joy |
| D | C | |
| A hall had been rented and I | was presented |
| G | D | |
| As the kind of a singer al | l could enjoy |
| D | C | |
| As I climbed up the stair to the s | tage standing there |
| G | D | |
| It | was obvious something was | missing |
| D | C | |
| I could tell by the vibes they | wouldn't be bribed |
| G | D | |
| T | hey weren't in the mood to list | en, they yelled out |
| D | C | |
| Play me a r | ock 'n' roll song |
| G | A | G | A | |
| Don't play me s | ongs about | freedom and j | oy |
| D | C | |
| Play me a r | ock 'n' roll song |
| G | A | D | |
| Or don't play me no | song at al | l |
| D | C | |
| I played them some songs about p | eace and contentment |
| G | D | |
| And things that I've come to belie | ve in |
| D | C | |
| When I was through to a choru | s of boo |
| G | D | |
| Some track star yelled thank God he | 's leaving |
| D | C | |
| Now someone play me a rock 'n' roll | song |
| G | A | G | A | |
| I've had it to | here with your | flowers and b | eads |
| D | C | |
| Play me a ro | ck 'n' roll song |
| G | A | D | |
| Or don't play me | no song at al | l |
| (QUEIT, GRAUDUALY BUILD) |
| D | C | |
| Well if I played you a ro | ck 'n' roll song |
| G | A | G | A | |
| How | could it be f | air 'cause m | y head isn't th | ere |
| D | C | |
| So I'll leave you with your r | ock 'n' roll songs |
| (LOUD) |
| G | A | D | |
| And make my way ba | ck to the co | untry |
| D | C | |
| Still I hear play me a r | ock 'n' roll song |
| G | A | G | A | |
| Don't give me | music I | don't want to h | ear |
| D | C | |
| Play me a r | ock 'n' roll song |
| G | A | G | A | |
| I | should have stayed ho | me with a | big case of b | eer |
| D | C | |
