Lyrics:

E
If I could stick my pen in my heart
I would spill it all over the stage
Would it satisfy ya, would it slide on by ya,
Would you think the boy is strange?
         A  G  E
Ain't he strange?
     
E
If I could win ya, If I could sing ya
a love song so divine
would it be enough for your cheating heart
if I broke down and cried?
     A G E
If I cried?
     
  CHORUS
       A                                        E
I said I know... it's only rock and roll, but I like it
A
I know... it's only rock and roll,
       E        D        A     E
but I like it, like it, yes I do
        A
Oh well I like it 
   E
I like it
   A
I like it
        D         A
I said can't you see
      D        A              E
that this old boy has been a-lonely
     
E
If I could stick a knife in my heart
Suicide right on the stage
Would it be enough for your teenage lust
Would it help to ease the pain?
          A G E
Ease your brain?

E
If I could dig down deep in my heart
Feelings would flood on the page
Would it satisfy ya, would it slide on by ya,
Would you think the boy's insane?
     A G E
He's insane
     
CHORUS
     
BRIDGE:
B                                           A
And do ya think that you're the only girl around?
B                                              A  
I bet you think that you're the only woman in town.
