Verse:
I[B]'d go down to the Strip tonight
I'm not on a stay-home trip tonight
Long hair seems to be the main attraction
But the heat is causing all the action
Pre-chorus:
[Am]Bright li[G]ghts e[Am]verywh[C]ere
P[F#]retty gi[G]rls with l[Am]ong blonde h[C]air
[F#]But someh[G]ow the p[Am]eople th[C]ey don't c[G]are[F#]
Chorus:
It j[B]ust [D#m/A#]doesn't seem f[G#]air
To b[B]ug you 'cause you[D#m/A#] got long h[G#]air
E[B]ven the[D#m/A#] parents a[G#]re beginning to s[F#]tare
Post-chorus:
B [continue witb intro riff]
Because of the sirens on our streets
They used to be neat
But now it's just a place for black and white cars to race
It's causin' a riot
It's causin' a riot, yeah
[guitar solo over intro riff, 8X] 
[repeat pre-cborus] 
[repeat cborus] 
[repeat post-cborus] 
Coda [ranted over intro riff]:
It's causin' a riot
It's causin' a riot, everywhere
People runnin' around, riots everywhere
Pushin', pushin', pushin' everywhere [fade]
-- another ace 60's tab from Andrew Rogers
