Rock N Roll I Gave You All The Best Years Of My Life Chords

Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Verse 1

CI can still remember when I Fbrought my first G7guitar

 Remember Cjust how good the feeling was put it Fproudly in my G7car

 And my Cfamily listened fifty times to my A7two song repertoDmire

 And I told my mom her only son was Fgonna G7be a Cstar

 Brought all the Beatles records Fsounded just like GPaul

CBrought all the old Chuck Berry's Fseventy eights and G7all

 And CI sat by my record player A7playing every note they Dmplayed

 And I watched them all on TV making Fevery G7move they Cmade

Chorus

CRock and Roll I gave you all the Fbest years of my life

 All the G7dreamy sunny sundays all the Fmoonlit summer Cnights

 I was so Cbusy in the backroom writing Flove songs to you

 While you were G7changing your direction and you Fnever even Cknew

 That I was G7always just one step behind you

Verse 2

C'66 seemed like the year I was Freally going G7somewhere

 We were Cliving in San Francisco with Fflowers in our G7hair

CSinging songs of kindness so the A7world would understDmand

 That the guy's and me were something more than Fjust another G7band

CAnd then '69 in LA Fcame around so Gsoon

CWe were really making head way Fwriting lots of Gtunes

CAnd we must have played the wildest stuff A7we had ever plaDmyed

 And the crowds cried out for us well we thought Fwe G7had it Cmade

Chorus 2

CRock and Roll I gave you all the Fbest years of my life

 All the G7crazey lazy young days all the Fmagic moonlit Cnights

 I was so Cbusy on the road singing Flove songs to you

 While you were G7changing your direction and you Fnever even Cknew

 That I was G7always just one step behind you

 Do Do Do etc ( C F G7 C x2)

Verse 3

C'71 in Soho Fwhen I saw G7Suzanne

CI was trying to go it solo with Fsomeone else's G7band

CAnd she came up to me later and A7took her by the Dmhand

 And I told her all my troubles and she Fseemed to underG7stand

CAnd she followed me through London through a Fhundred hotel Grooms

CThrough a hundred record companies who Fdidn't like my Gtunes

CAnd she followed me when finally I A7sold my old Dmguitar

 And she tried to help me understand I'd nFever G7be a Cstar

Chorus 3

CRock and Roll I gave you all the Fbest years of my life

 All the G7dreamy sunny sundays all the Fmoonlit summer Cnights

CAnd though I never knew the magic of Fmaking it with you

 I G7thank the lord for giving me the Flittle bit I Cknew

 And I will G7always be one step behind Cyou

CRock and Roll I gave you all the Fbest years of my life

G7Singing out my love songs on a Fbright lit magic Cnight

 And Cthough I never knew the magic of Fmaking it with you

G7I thank the lord for giving me the Flittle bit I Cknew

CRock and Roll I gave you all the Fbest years of my life

 All the G7dreamy sunny sundays all the Fmoonlit summer Cnights

 I was Cso busy in the backroom writing Flove songs for you

 While you were G7changing your direction and you Fnever even Cknew
