Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][C][C][C]

[Verse 1]
[C]What's the matter
with the [Em]clothes I'm wearing?
"Can't you [Bb]tell that your tie's too [F]wide?"
[C]Maybe I should buy some old[Em] tab collars?
"Welcome [Bb]back to the age of [F]jive

[Pre-chorus 1]
[Em]Where have you been hidin' out l[Am]ately,
honey?
You [Em]can't dress trashy
till you [D]spend a lot of [G]money"

[Chorus 1]
[C]Everybody's [Em]talkin' 'bout the [Bb]new sound
[F]Funny, but it's [Am]still rock and [G]roll to [C]me

[Verse 2]
[C]What's the matter with the car[Em] I'm driving?
"Can't you [Bb]tell that it's out of [F]style?"
[C]Should I get a set of whi[Em]te wall tires?
"Are you [Bb]gonna cruise a miracle [F]mile?

[Pre-chorus 2]
[Em]Nowadays you can't be too [Am]sentimental
You [Em]best bet's a true baby [D]blue Conti[G]nental

[Chorus 2]
[C]Hot funk, [Em]cool punk, [Bb]even if it's [F]old junk
It's [Am]still rock and [G]roll to [C]me

[Bridge 1]
[G]Oh, it doesn't matter
what they [F]say in the papers
'Cause it's [E]always been the same old [Am]scene
There's a [G]new band in town
But you [F]can't get the sound
from a [E]story in a [Ab]magazine
[Eb]Aimed at your average [F]teen[G]

[Verse 3]
[C]How about a pair of pin[Em]k sidewinders
And a [Bb]bright orange pair of [F]pants?
[C]"You could really be a Bea[Em]u Brummel baby
If you [Bb]just give it half a [F]chance

[Pre-chorus 3]
[Em]Don't waste your money
on a [Am]new set of speakers
You [Em]get more mileage
from a [D]cheap pair of [G]sneakers"

[Chorus 3]
[C]Next phase, [Em]new wave, [Bb]dance craze, a[F]nyways
It's [Am]still rock and [G]roll to [C]me

[Solo 1]
[G][F][E][Am]
[G][F][E][Ab]
[Eb]Ooh[F][G]

[Verse 4]
[C]What's the matter
with the [Em]crowd I'm seeing?
"Don't you [Bb]know that their out of [F]touch?"
[C]Should I try to be a str[Em]aight 'A' student?
"If you [Bb]are then you think too m[F]uch

[Pre-chorus 4]
[Em]Don't you know about the
[Am]new fashion honey?
[Em]All you need are looks
and a [D]whole lotta [G]money"

[Chorus 4]
It's the [C]next phase, [Em]new wave,
[Bb]dance craze, [F]anyways
It's [Am]still rock and [G]roll to [C]me
[C]Everybody's [Em]talkin' 'bout the [Bb]new sound
[F]Funny, but it's [G]still rock and roll to [C]me
