Standard (EADGBE)

See the way he walks down the street,

watch the way he shuffles his feet

My, he holds his head up high,

 when he goes walking by,

he's my guy

When he holds my hand I'm so proud,

'cause he's not just one of the crowd

My baby's always the one,

 to try the things they've never done,

 and just because of that, they say

He's a rebel and he'll never ever be any good

He's a rebel 'cause he never ever does what he should

 But just because he doesn't do what everybody else does,

that's no reason why I can't give him all my love

He's always good to me,

Always treats me tenderly

 'Cause he's not a rebel, oh no no no

He's not a rebel, oh no no no, to me

If they don't like him that way,

they won't like me after today,

and I'll be standing right by his side when they say

He's a rebel and he'll never ever be any good

He's a rebel 'cause he never ever does what he should

But just because he doesn't do what everybody else does,

that's no reason why we can't share a love

He's always good to me,

good to him, I try to be

 'Cause he's not a rebel, oh no no no,

he's not a rebel, oh no no no, to me

 Oh! (He's not a rebel, oh no no no)

He's not a rebel, oh no no no

He's not a rebel, oh no no no . . . .
