[G]I've done [D]a lot of [F#m]things I [F]shan't relate,
[E]but [C]I refuse t[F]o rock and r[Bb]oll.
[D]I've [G]bee[F#]n the[F#m] inspiration for[F] a son[E]g[D]

[Verse 2]

[Verse 3]

[Verse 4]
[F]fuse [F#dim]to rock and ro[F]ll[Bb][A]

[Verse 5]
[G]It's [D]not[Bb] tha[Fm]t it t[Bb]akes
emotions [Eb]that I [Bb]lack[Eb]
[D]I've [C]got [Gm]what [C]you might cal[F]l respect
For my sacroili[G]ac,
I danced [F#]with sailors at [F]the USO[C]
[E]For [D]whi[G]ch I got a [F#m]Navy s[D]croll[G][E]
[D]An [G]d I've b[D]een tatt[F#m]ooed

But I re[F]fuse [G]to rock [F]and [Bb]roll
[D][G][D][C][D][Gm][D]
I've been to dinner with [E]that [A]ex -king man
[F#]He o[G]ffered me a [F]pi[E]nk mink [A]stole[D]
[G]The [D]gifts he [F]promised [E]me could [G]fill a van
[C]But I re[F]fused [Eb]to r[D]ock an[C] d r[Bb]oll[A]
[D]An [G]art[F#]ist pai[F]nted me [E]in jus[A]t a veil
[D]To [G]sho[F#m]w the [F]world I ha[E]d a so[A]ul[D]
[Gm]It m[D]ade a ce[F]rtain fe[C]
male [G]star turn pale
[C]But I re[F]fused [Eb]to rock an[F] d r[Bb]oll
[Gm]That [Bb]prince [Fm]used [Bb]to court me
everywhere I [Eb]went
[D]I w[Eb]ince [C]when I think of th[Eb]e times
[F]That he chased me round the tent
I [G]have a [F#]lot of [F]virtues, [C]I sup[Eb]pose
[D]But[Gm] none[D] a spi[F]nster woul[C]d extol[A]
[D]The[G] point is, I a[F#m]m not the[F#] purest [F]rose,
[C]but I r[A]efuse[C] to g[D]ive[Eb] in[E][F]
to rhythm and [Daug]blues.[Gm]
[G]To [C]save my soul,
I just want [F]rock [Bb]and r[Gm]oll.
[Eb]Oh a[C]ppla[Eb]use[Bb]
