And Roll I Gave You The Best Years Of My Life

INTRO:
D  D

VERSE: (Singls Strums for the 
1st Verse)
D                           
I can still remember when I 
 G                 A
bought my first guitar
           D
I remember just how good the 
feeling was
        G             A
Put it proudly in my car
       D                 
And I played my friends a 
 Bm
thousand times
    G             D
My two song repertoire
      G               A     
And I told my mom her oldest 
        A        D
son was gonna be star

VERSE:
D
I bought all the Beatles 
records
        G                  A
And I tried to sound like Paul
   D                      
I bought all the old Buddy 
            G        A
Holly’s, the 78s and all
      D                Bm    
And I sat by my record player 
        G               D
playing every song they played
      G                  A  
And I watched them all on TV 
                D
every move they made

CHORUS:
D                           
Rock and Roll I gave you all 
    G
the best years of my life
      A
The dreamy sunny Sundays
         D
All the magic moonlit nights

          D
I was so busy in the backroom
         G
Writing love songs to you
                A
While you were changing your 
direction
G             D
I never even knew
          A               
That I was always one step 
  D
behind you

VERSE:
D                             
‘66 seemed like the year I was 
G                 A
really going somewhere
        D                     
We were living in San Francisco
      G              A
with flowers in our hair
D                Bm         
Singing songs of kindness so 
    G                 D
the world would understand
         G               
That the guys and me were 
A
something more
A
Than just another band

VERSE:
    D                 G   
And ‘69 in LA well it came 
          A
around so slow
            D            
But we were really making 
             G           
headway and writin’ lots 
  A
of tunes
       D                   
And we must have played the 
Bm           G             
wildest stuff we had ever 
D
played
           G             
'Cause the way the crowds 
       A                 
yelled out for more we 
               D
thought we had it made

CHORUS:
D                           
Rock and Roll I gave you all 
    G
the best years of my life
 A                       D
Playing my guitar under bright 
and flashing lights
         D               
I was so busy on the road 
        G
singing love songs to you
                A           
While you were changing your 
         G             D
direction I never even knew
          A               
That I was always one step 
  D
behind you.

VERSE:
D          G             
‘71 in Soho is when I met 
   A
Suzanne
      D                       
I was trying to Go it solo with
 G              A
someone else's band
        D             Bm      
And she came up to me later on 
      G               D
and I took her by the hand
      G                A
And I told her all my troubles 
and she seemed to understand

VERSE:
        D                    
And she followed me to London 
          G             A
through a hundred hotel rooms
          D             
Through a hundred record 
               G        
companies that didn’t 
     A
like my tunes
        D               
And she followed me 'til 
Bm        G             
finally I sold my old 
D
guitar
         G              
And she tried to help me 
A                       
understand that I'd never
      D
be a star

CHORUS:
D                           
Rock and Roll I gave you all 
    G
the best years of my life
      A
The dreamy sunny Sundays
         D
All the magic moonlit nights

               D
And though I’d never had the 
chance
    G
Of making it with you
   A                          
I thank the lord for giving me 
G                D
the little bit I knew
           A                 
And I will always be one step 
  D
behind you

OUTRO:
D                           
Rock and Roll I gave you all 
    G
the best years of my life
