Capo: 1st fret

[Refrain]
        D
They're lookin’ right you
         E7
From the posters in your room
            G
They're the song that you sing
         Bb
When you don't believe a thing
            D
They’re the hope and the prayer
     A              G     D Em Am E7 Am
When no one else is there
 
 
[Verse 1]
G         D              Em
 A little dreamer in the glow of the receiver
      Am            E7     Am
Every song he played was alright
D             C         G              D
 Blew out the speakers, dancin' in his sneakers
      Em          B7     G
Every move he made was alright
Am                    D
Swingin' on a beam of light
B7                     C
Catch a star before it dies (Dies)
       G          D          G   D Em Am E7 Am
What a perfect night to fly away
 
 
[Verse 2]
G           D                Em
 Goodbye to Vegas, there was nothin' left to save us
      Am        E7       Am
So we drove away, it's alright
D            C         G                   D
 Jump in the sprinter, touring through the winter
      Em            B7     G
Every show we played was alright
Am                      D
Singin' out our life on stage
B7                     C
High enough to feel no pain (Oh)
       G         D         G
What a perfect day to fly away

[Outro]
Am                   D
On the bus after the show
B7                    C
Starin' down a lonely road
     G       D             G
Everybody needs a place to go
              They're looking right at you
From the posters in your room
They're the song that you sing
When you don't believe a thing
They're the hope, they're the prayer
When no one else is there

A little dreamer in the glow of the receiver
Every song he played was all right
Blew out the speakers dancing in his sneakers
Every move he made was all right
Swinging on a beam of light
Catch a star before it dies
What a perfect night to fly away

Goodbye to Vegas, there was nothing left to save us
So we drove away, it's all right
Jumped in the sprinter, touring through the winter
Every show we played was all right
Singing out our life on stage
High enough to feel no pain
What a perfect day to fly away

Well I don't really know what I know
But I'll show you everything that I can show you tonight
And I don't know where we're going, but it's going all right
It's all right
It's all right

Well I don't really know what I know
But I'll show you everything that I can show you tonight
And I don't know where we're going, but it's going all right
It's all right
It's all right

It's all right
It's all right

God killed rock 'n' roll
God killed rock 'n' roll
No blood on the stage, no Plant, no Paige
Kiss 'em all goodbye
God killed rock 'n' roll
God killed rock 'n' roll
No fist through the glass, no backstage pass
'Cause god killed rock
God killed rock 'n' roll

God killed rock
God killed rock 'n' roll
God killed rock 'n' roll
Your Buddy Holly glasses and your plaster casters
Kiss 'em all goodbye
God killed rock 'n' roll
God killed rock 'n' roll
Your leather slacks and your hi watt stacks
'Cause god killed rock
God killed rock 'n' roll

They're looking right at you
From the posters in your room
They're the song that you sing
When you don't believe a thing
They're the hope, they're the prayer
When no one else is there
They rock your mom
They rock your dad

God killed rock 'n' roll

On the bus after the show
Staring down a lonely road
Everybody needs a place to go
