| Em7 | A7sus4 | D |
Well we’re | living here in | Allentown | |
| Am7 | D9sus4 | G |
And they’re | closing all the | factories down | |
| Em7 | A | Bm |
Out in | Bethlehem they’re | killing | time |
F#m/A | G6 | D/F# | A7sus4 | A |
Filling out | forms, | standing in | line | |
| Em7 | A7sus4 | D |
Well our | fathers fought the | Second World War | |
| Am7 | D9sus4 | G |
Spent their | weekends on the | Jersey shore | |
| Em7 | A | Bm |
Met our | mothers in the | US | O |
F#m/A | G6 | D/F# | Asus4 | A |
Asked them to | dance, | danced with them s | low | |
| Em7 | A7sus4 | D |
And we’re | living here in | Allentown | |
| F/A | G/B | C | G/C | C |
But the | restlessness was | handed d | own | | |
| Am7 | D9sus4 | Em | G/B | C | D |
And it’s | getting very | hard to st | ay | | | |
| Em7 | A7sus4 | D |
Well we’re | waiting here in | Allentown | |
| Am7 | D9sus4 | G |
For the | Pennsylvania | we never found | |
| Em7 | A | Bm |
For the | promises our | teachers g | ave |
F#m/A | G6 | D/F# | A7sus4 | A |
If we worked | hard, | if we be | haved | |
| Em7 | A7sus4 | D |
So the | graduations | hang on the wall | |
| Am7 | D9sus4 | G |
But they | never really | helped us at all | |
| Em7 | A | Bm |
No they | never taught us | what was | real |
F#m/A | G6 | D/F# | A7sus4 | A |
Iron and | coke, | chromium st | eel | |
| Em7 | A7sus4 | D |
And we’re | waiting here in | Allentown | |
| F/A | G/B | C | G/C | C |
But they’ve | taken all the | coal from the gr | ound | | |
| Am | D9sus4 | Em | G/B | C | D |
And the | union people | crawled a | way | | | |
F | G/F | F |
Every child | had a pret | ty good shot |
F | G/F | Bb/F |
To get at least as f | ar as their | old man got |
F | G/F | F |
But something ha | ppened on the | way to that place |
F | G/F | Cadd9 |
They threw an A | merican flag in o | ur face |
| Em7 | A7sus4 | D |
Well I’m | living here in | Allentown | |
| F/A | G/B | C | G/C | C |
And it’s | hard to keep a | good man | down | | |

Call me a joker, c | all me a fool |
| D/A | A |
R | ight at this moment I’m t | otally cool |
A | A/C# | D |
Clear as a | crystal, | sharp as a knife |
D | A |
I feel like I’m in the p | rime of my life |
G | D/F# |
Sometimes it feels like I’m g | oing too fast |
A/E | B7/D# |
I don’t know how long this f | eeling will last |
A/E | E | A |
Maybe it’s | only toni | ght |
| G | D/F# | A/E | A |
Darling I | don’t know why | I go to e | xtr | emes |

Too high or | too low there a | in’t no in | bet | weens |

And if I | stand or I | fall, i | t’s all or nothing a | t | all |

Darling I | don’t know why | I go to | extr | emes |
A | D/A |
Sometimes I’m tired, | sometimes I’m shot |
D/A | A |
Sometimes I don’t know how m | uch more I got |
A | A/C# | D |
Maybe I’m | headed o | ver the hill |
D | A |
Maybe I set myself | up for the kill |
G | D/F# |
Tell me how much do you t | hink you can take |
A/E | B7/D# |
Until the heart in you’s s | tarting to break |
A/E | E | A |
Sometimes it feels | like it w | ill |

Darling I | don’t know why | I go to e | xtr | emes |

Too high or | too low there a | in’t no in | bet | weens |

You can b | e sure when I’m | gone | I won’t be out there t | oo l | ong |
| G | D/F# | A/E | A |
Darling I | don’t know why | I go to | extr | emes |
B | G | D | A |
Out of the darkness, | into the light, le | aving the scene of the c | rime |
B | G | D |
Either I’m wrong or I’m p | erfectly right every t | ime |
F#m | Dmaj7 |
Sometimes I lie awake n | ight after night |
A | E |
Coming apart at the | seams |
B | G |
Eager to please, r | eady to fight |
D | A |
Why do I go to extr | emes |
| G6 | F#7 | Bm | Bm/C# | Dm |
And if I | stand or I | fall, i | t’s all or nothing a | t | all |
| G | D/F# | A/E | A |
Darling I | don’t know why | I go to | extr | emes |

No I | don’t know why | I go to | extr | emes |

Too high or | too low, there ain | ’t no in | bet | weens |

You can b | e sure when I’m | gone | I won’t be out there t | oo l | ong |

Darling I | don’t know why | I go to | extr | emes |
G | D/F# | A |
| I | don’t know why, I don’t know why |
G | D/F# | A |
| I | don’t know why, I don’t know why |
| A |
If it | seems like I’ve been lost in let’s remember |
If you think I’m feeling older and missing my younger days
| D |
Oh, then you | should have known me much better |
Cause my past is something that never
| A |
Still I | would not be here now if I never had the hunger |
And I’m not ashamed to say the wild boys were my friends
| D |
Cause I | never felt the desire till their music set me on fire |
| E6 | D |
And then I was | saved, | yeah |
| E6 |
That’s why I’m keeping the | faith |
Only Flagg Brothers had them with the Cuban heel
Iridescent socks with the same color shirt
And a tight pair of chinos
| D |
I | put on my shark skin jacket |
You know the kind with the velvet collar
I took a fresh pack of Luckies and a mint called Sen-Sen
My old man's Trojans and his Old Spice after shave
| D |
Combed my | hair in a pompadour |
Like the rest of the Romeos wore
| E6 | D |
A permanent | wave | yeah |
| E6 |
We were keeping the | faith |
| E | D | A |
You can | get just so | much from a | good thing |
| E | D | A |
You can | linger too | long in your | dreams |
| E | D | A |
Say | goodbye to the | oldies but | goodies |
| Bm7 |
Cause the | good old days weren’t always good |
| E7 |
And | tomorrow ain’t as bad as it seems |
A |
Learned stickball as a formal education |
Lost a lot of fights but it taught me how to lose O.K.
| D |
I | heard about sex but not enough |
| A |
I found you could dance and still look tough any | way |
I found out a man ain’t just being macho
Ate an awful lot of late night drive-in food drank a lot of take-home pay
| D |
I | thought I was the Duke of Earl |
When I made it with a red-haired girl
| E6 |
We were keeping the | faith |
| E | D | A |
You can | get just so | much from a | good thing |
| E | D | A |
You can | linger too | long in your | dreams |
| E | D | A |
Say | goodbye to the | oldies but | goodies |
| Bm7 |
Cause the | good old days weren’t always good |
| E7 |
And | tomorrow ain’t as bad as it seems |
| E | D | A |
You can | get just so | much from a | good thing |
| E | D | A |
You can | linger too | long in your | dreams |
| E | D | A |
Say | goodbye to the | oldies but | goodies |

Cause the | good old days weren’t always good |
| E7 |
And | tomorrow ain’t as bad as it seems |
| A |
Now I | told you my reasons for the whole revival |
Now I’m going outside to have an
Ice cold beer in the shade
| D |
I’m going to | listen to my 45’s |
Ain’t it wonderful to be alive
When the rock 'n' roll
| E6 | D |
When the memory | stays, | yeah |
| G | D/F# |
Well, I’m | shameless when it comes to | loving you |
| Em | C | Bb |
I’ll do anything you | want me to, I’ll do anything at | all | |
| G | D/F# |
And I’m | standing, here for all the | world to see |
| Em | C | Bb |
Aw, there ain’t that much | left of me that has very far to | fall | |
| D | B |
You know now | I’m not a man who’s | ever been |
| Em | Am7 |
Inse | cure about the world I’ve been | living in |
| D | B |
I | don’t break easy I | have my pride |
| Em | F | F# |
But if | you need to be | satis | fied |
| G | D/F# |
I’m s | hameless baby I don’t | have a prayer |
| Em |
Every time I see you sta | nding there |
| C | Bb |
I go down upon my | knees | |
| G | D/F# |
And I’m | changing swore I’d | never compromise |
| Em |
Aw, but you convinced me o | therwise |
| C | Bb |
I’ll do anything you | please | |
| D | B |
You see in | all my life I’ve | never found |
| Em | Am7 |
What I c | ouldn’t resist what I couldn’t t | urn down |
| D | B |
I could | walk away from anyone I | ever knew |
| Em | F | Gm | Am |
But I | can’t walk away from | you | | |
| Bb | Am |
I have | never let anything have this much | control over me |
| Ab | Eb |
I | worked too hard to call my life my | own |
| Bb | Am |
And I’ve | made myself a world and it’s worked so | perfectly |
| Ab |
But it’s | your world now I can’t refuse |
Am | D7 |
I’ve never had so much | to lose |
| G | D | Em | C | Bb |
Oh, I’m | shameless | | | | |
| D |
You know it | should be easy for a |
| Em | Am7 |
To say h | e’s sorry or ad | mit when he’s wrong |
| D | B |
I n | ever lost anything I | ever missed |
| Em | F |
But | I’ve never been in | love like this |
| G | D/F# |
I’m sham | eless, I don’t have the | power now |
| Em | C | Bb |
I don’t want it | anyhow so I’ve got to let it go | | |
| G | D/F# |
I’m sham | eless, shameless as a ma | n can be |
| Em |
You could make a total f | ool of me |
| C | Bb |
I just wanted you to know | | |
| G | D/F# | Em | C | Bb |
Oh, I’m | shameless | | | | |
C | Em |
What’s the matter with the cl | othes I’m wearing? |
| Bb | F |
Can’t you t | ell that your tie’s too w | ide? |
C | Em |
Maybe I should buy some o | ld tab collars |
| Bb | F |
Welcome | back to the age of j | ive |
Em | Am |
Where have you been hidin’ o | ut lately, honey? |
| Em | D | G |
You | can’t dress trashy till you | spend a lot of | money |
C | Em | Bb |
Everybody’s | talking ‘bout the | new sound |
F | Am | G | C |
Funny, but it’s | still rock and | roll to | me |
C | Em |
What’s the matter with the | car I’m driving? |
| Bb | F |
Can’t you | tell it’s out of st | yle? |
C | Em |
Should I get a set of | white wall tires? |
| Bb | F |
Are you | gonna cruise the miracle mi | le? |
Em | Am |
Nowadays you can’t be t | oo sentimental |
| Em | D | G |
Your | best bet’s a true baby, | blue Conti | nental |
C | Em | Bb | F |
Hot funk, | cool punk | even if it’s | old junk |
| Am | G | C |
It’s | still rock and r | oll to m | e |
| G | F |
O | h it doesn’t matter what they sa | y in the papers |
| E | Am |
‘Cause it’s a | lways been the same old sc | ene |
| G | F |
There’s a | new band in town but you ca | n’t get the sound |
| E | Ab |
From a | story in a ma | gazine |
Eb | F | G |
Aimed at your average | teen | |
C | Em |
How about a pair of | pink sidewinders |
| Bb | F |
And a | bright orange pair of pant | s? |
C | Em |
Well, you could really be a | Beau Brummel baby |
| Bb | F |
If you j | ust give it half a cha | nce |
Em | Am |
Don’t waste your money on a n | ew set of speakers |
| Em | D | G |
You | get more mileage from a ch | eap pair of sn | eakers |
C | Em | Bb | F |
Next phase, | new wave, | dance craze, | anyways |
| Am | G | C |
It’s | still rock and | roll to me | |
G | F | E | Am |
G | F | E7 | Ab | Eb | F | G |

C | Em |
What’s the matter with th | e crowd I’m seeing? |
| Bb | F |
Don’t you | know that they’re out of touc | h? |
C | Em |
Should I try to be a s | traight A student? |
| Bb | F |
If you | are, then you think too much | |
Em | Am |
Don’t you know about the n | ew fashion, honey? |
Em | D | G |
All you need are looks and a w | hole lotta | money |
| C | Em | Bb | F |
It’s the n | ext phase, n | ew wave, d | ance craze, | anyways |
| Am | G | C |
It’s | still rock and | roll to me | |
C | Em | Bb |
Everybody’s | talking about the n | ew sound |

Funny, but it’s s | till rock and roll to me | |
| E | D | A |
L | isten boy, I don’t want to see you let a g | ood thing slip a | way |
| E | D | A |
You know I d | on’t like watching anybody make the sa | me mistakes I m | ade |
| G#m | G | F#m |
She’s a | real nice girl and she’s | always there for | you |
| Am | E/G# | F#m | B |
But a n | ice girl wouldn’t | tell you what you should | do | |
| E | D | A |
Oh, l | isten boy, I’m sure that you think you got it a | ll under cont | rol |
| E | D | A |
You don’t w | ant somebody telling you the way to st | ay in someone’s s | oul |
| G#m | G | F#m |
You’re a | big boy now and you’ll n | ever let her | go |
| Am | E/G# | F#m | E | F# |
But t | hat’s just the kind of | thing she ought to k | now | | |

T | ell her about it, tell her | all your crazy dreams |
G#m | G#m7 | C#m7 | F#7sus4 | F#7 |
Let her know you | need her, let her | know how much she | means | |
| E | D | A |
L | isten, boy, it’s not automatically a ce | rtain guarant | ee |
| E | D | A |
To ins | ure yourself, you’ve got to provide communic | ation constant | ly |
| G#m | G | F#m |
When you | love someone you’re | always insec | ure |
| Am | E/G# | F#m | E | F# |
And there’s | only one good | way to reass | ure | | |
| B | D#m |
T | ell her about it, let her | know how much you care |
G#m | G#m7 | C#m7 | F#7sus4 |
When she can’t be | with you, tell her | you wish you were | there |
| B | D#m |
T | ell her about it every | day before you leave |
G#m | G#m7 | C#m7 | F#7sus4 | F#7 |
Pay her some at | tention, give her | something to be | lieve | |
D | Bm | C |
‘Cause now and t | hen she’ll get to w | orrying |
| D | Em | A | Bm | A/C# |
Ju | st bec | ause you haven’t s | poken for so l | ong | |
| D | Bm | C |
And th | ough you | may not have done | anything |
| D | Em | A | F#/A# | B |
W | ill that | be a consol | ation when she’s | gone? | |
| E | D | A |
L | isten boy, it’s good information from a m | an who’s made mist | akes |
| E | D | A |
Just a wo | rd or two that she gets from you could be the d | ifference that it m | akes |
| G#m | G | F#m |
She’s a | trusting soul, she’s p | ut her trust in | you |
| Am | E/G# | F#m | E | F# |
But a | girl like that won’t | tell you what you should | do | | |
| B | D#m |
T | ell her about it, tell her | everything you feel |
G#m | G#m7 | C#m7 | F#7sus4 |
Give her every | reason to ac | cept that you’re for | real |

T | ell her about it, tell her | all your crazy dreams |
G#m | G#m7 | C#m7 | F#7sus4 | F#7 |
Let her know you | need her, let her | know how much she | means | |

T | ell her about it, | tell her how you f | eel right now |

T | ell her about it, the | girl don’t want to | wait too long |
| E | D | A |
You got to te | ll her about it, | tell her now and you | won’t go wrong |
| E | D | A |
You got to te | ll her about it, be | fore it gets too | late you’ve got to... |
| G | D | Em |
Well I’m | on the Downe | aster Al | exa |
| G | D | C |
And I’m | cruising through | Block Island | Sound |
| C | G | Am |
I have | charted a | course to the | Vineyard |
| Em | D | C |
But to | night I am | Nantucket | bound |
C | D | G | C |
We took on | diesel back in | Montauk | yesterday |
C | D | Em | D/F# |
And left this | morning from the | bell in Gardiner’s | Bay |
C | D | G | C |
Like all the | locals here I’ve | had to sell my | home |
C | D | Em | D/F# |
Too proud to | leave I worked my | fingers to the | bone |
| G | D | Em |
So I could | own my Downe | aster Ale | xa |
| G | D | C |
And I | go where the | ocean is | deep |
| C | G | Am |
There are | giants out | there in the | canyons |
| G | D | C |
And a | good captain | can’t fall | asleep |
C | D | G | C |
I’ve got | bills to pay and | children who need | clothes |
C | D | Em | D/F# |
I know there’s | fish out there | but where God only | knows |
C | D | G | C |
They say these | waters aren’t | what they used to | be |
C | D | Em | D/F# |
But I’ve got | people back on | land who count on | me |
| G | D | Em |
So if you | see my Downe | aster Al | exa |
| G | D | C |
And if you | work with the | rod and the | reel |
| C | G | Am |
Tell my | wife I am | trolling | Atlantis |
| G | D | C |
And I | still have my | hands on the | wheel |
| G | D | Em |
Now I | drive my Downe | aster Al | exa |
| G | D | C |
More and | more miles from | shore every | year |
| C | G | Am |
Since they | tell me I | can’t sell no | stripers |
| G | D | C |
And there’s | no luck in | swordfishing | here |
C | D | G | C |
I was a | bayman like my | father was | before |
C | D | Em | D/F# |
Can’t make a | living as a | bayman | anymore |
C | D | G | C |
There ain’t much | future for a | man who works the | sea |
C | D | Em | D/F# |
But there ain’t no | island left for | islanders like | me |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | D | A |
If | you | said | good | bye to me ton | ight |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | B | E |
There | would | still | be | music left to | write |
C# | F#m |
What else could | I do |
E7 | A | A7 |
I’m so insp | ired | by you |
D | Bm | E | A |
That hasn’t | happened for the | longest | time |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | D | A |
Once | I | thought | my | innocence was | gone |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | B | E |
Now | I k | now | that | happiness goes | on |
C# | F#m |
That’s where you | found me |
E7 | A | A7 |
When you put your | arms a | round me |
D | Bm | E | A |
I haven’t | been there for the | longest ti | me |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | D | A |
I’m | that | voice | you’re | hearing in the | hall |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | B | E |
And | the | great | est | miracle of | all |
E7 | A | A7 |
And how you n | eeded | me too |
D | Bm | E | A |
That has | n’t happened for the | longest | time |
E | E7 | F#m |
Maybe | this won’t | last very long |
| G#7 |
But | you feel so right |
C#m | F#m |
Maybe I’ve been | hoping too hard |
| B7 |
But | I’ve gone this far |
| E | E7 |
And it’s | more than I | hoped for |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | D | A |
Who | knows | how | much | further we’ll go | on |
A | A/G# | A/F# | Amaj7/E | B | E |
May | be I’ | ll | be s | orry when you’re | gone |
C# | F#m |
I’ll take my | chances |
E7 | A | A7 |
I forgot how n | ice r | omance is |
D | Bm | E | A |
I haven’t | been there for the | longest | time |
E | E7 | F#m |
I had | second | thoughts at the start |
C#m | F#m |
Now I know the | woman that you are |
| B7 |
You’re | wonderful so far |
| E | E7 |

Friday night I crashed your party |
Saturday I said I’m sorry

Sunday came and trashed me out a | gain |

And we | all enjoyed the weekend for a | change |

I was | stranded in the combat zone |
I walked through Bedford Sty alone

Even rode my motorcycle in the | rain |

And you | told me not to drive |

‘Cause you | might enjoy some madness for a | while |

Now | think of all the years you tried to |
Find someone to satisfy you

I might be as crazy as you | say |

If I’m | crazy then it’s true |

You m | ight want to sing it note for note |
| D | A |
Don’t wo | rry, be ha | ppy |
A |
In every life we have some trouble |
Bm |
But when you worry you make it double |
| D | A |
Don’t wo | rry, be ha | ppy (don’t worry, be happy now) |
A |
Ain’t got no place to lay your head |
Bm |
Somebody came and took your bed |
| D | A |
Don’t wo | rry, be ha | ppy |
A |
The landlord say your rent is late |
Bm |
He may have to litigate |
| D | A |
Don’t wo | rry, be ha | ppy (look at me, I’m happy) |
A |
Ain’t got no cash, ain’t got no style |
Bm |
Ain’t got no gal to make you smile |
| D | A |
But don’t wo | rry, be ha | ppy |
| A |
‘Cause w | hen you worry your face will frown |
| Bm |
And t | hat will bring everybody down |
| D | A |
So don’t wo | rry, be ha | ppy (don’t worry, be happy now) |
| A | A |
Don’ | t worry, b | e happy now |
Don't worry, don't worry, don't do it
Be happy, put a smile on your face
Don't bring everybody down
Don't worry, it will soon pass whatever it is

Played it till my fingers bled |

Me and some guys from school |

Had a band and we tried real hard |

Jimmy quit, Jody got married |

When you got a job to do |

Spent my evenings down at the drive-in |
E |
And that’s when I met you, yeah |
F#m | E |
Standin’ on your | mama’s porch |
A | D |
You told me that you’d | wait forever |

C | F | G |
I guess | nothin’ can last for | ever, forever, no |
A |
And now the times are changin’ |
E |
Look at everything that’s come and gone |
A |
Sometimes when I play that old six-string |
E |
I think about you and what went wrong |
F#m | E |
Standin’ on your | mama’s porch |
A | D |
You told me that it’d | last forever |

I got the call today that I | didn’t wanna hear |
| D |
But I | knew that it would come |
A | E |
Old true friend of ours was | talking on the phone |
| D |
She said you | found someone |
| E |
And I | thought of all the bad luck |
And the struggles we went through
| D |
And how | I lost me and you lost you |
E |
What are these voices outside love’s open door |
| D |
Make us | throw off our contentment |
| E |
And | beg for something more? |
A | Bm7 | A/C# |
But I’m learning to | live without you | now |
| D |
But I | miss you sometimes |
| A/E | F#m |
And the | more I know, the | less I understand |
| D | Esus4 | E |
All the | things I thought I knew I’m | learning aga | in |
A |
I’ve been trying to get down |
Bm7 |
To the heart of the matter |
| A/C# |
But my | will gets weak |
D |
And my thoughts seem to scatter |
| A/E |
But I think it’s about | forgiveness |
D | Esus4 | E | A |
Even if, even if | you don’t | love me any | more |
A | A | Asus2 | A | Asus2 | Asus4 |

All these | times are so uncertain |
| E |
There’s a | yearning undefined |
| D |
And | people filled with rage |
| A |
We all | need a little tenderness |
E | D |
How can love survive in | such a graceless age? |
| E |
Ah the | trust and self-assurance that lead to happiness |
| D | D |
They’re the | very things we | kill, I guess |
| E |
Our | pride and competition |
Can not fill these empty arms
| D |
And the | work I put between us |
| Esus4 | E |
You know it | doesn’t keep me | warm |
A | Bm7 | A/C# |
I’m learning to | live without you | now |
| A/E | F#m |
And the | more I know, the | less I understand |
| D |
All the | things I thought I’d figured out |
| Esus4 | E |
I | have to learn | again |
A |
I’ve been trying to get down |
Bm7 |
To the heart of the matter |
| A/C# |
But | everything changes |
D |
And my friends seem to scatter |
| A/E |
But I think it’s about | forgiveness |
D | Esus4 | E | A |
Even if, even if, | you don’t | love me any | more |
| G | D/F# |
There are | people in your life, | who’ve come and gone |
| Em | D/F# |
They | let you down, you know they | hurt your pride |
G | D/F# |
You better put it all behind you baby, ‘cause | life goes on |
| E |
You keep | carrying that anger, it will eat you up inside, baby |
A |
I’ve been trying to get down |
Bm7 |
To the heart of the matter |
| A/C# |
But my | will gets weak |
D |
And my thoughts seem to scatter |
| A/E |
But I think it’s about | forgiveness |
D | Esus4 |
Even if, even if | you don’t love me |
A |
I’ve been trying to get down |
Bm7 |
To the heart of the matter |
| A/C# |
Because the | flesh will get weak |
D |
And the ashes will scatter |
| A/E |
So I’m thinkin’ about | forgiveness |
D | Esus4 | A |
Even if, even if | you don’t love me any | more |

A little voice inside my head said |
Don’t look back, you could never look back

I thought I knew what love was, what did I know? |

Those days are gone forever I should just let them go, but |
