[Verse 1]
[C]The old roc[F]ker
wore [C]his [G]hair too lon[C]g[Bb][Am]
Wore his [Dm]trouser cuffs [G]too [C]tight
Unfash[F]ion[C]able [G]to the[C] end[Bb][Am]
[Dm]drank his ale [G]too light
Death's head [C]belts [G]buckle,

[Verse 2]
[D]
yesterday's [G]dream[F] s[Em]
The transport [Am]caf' prophet of [D]doom
[G]Ringing no cha[C]nge in [G]his[D]
double sewn [G]seam[F]s
[Em]In his [Am]post-war babe babe [D]gloom
[F]Now he's

[Verse 3]
[Bb]too [C]old[F]
to rock [Bb]'n' roll[F][Eb]
But [A]he's too young to [Dm]die
[F]Yes, he's [Bb]too [C]old [F]to
rock 'n' [Bb]roll[F][Eb]
But [Bb]he's too young to [F]die[G]

[Verse 4]
[C]He once own[F]ed a Harley[C] Dav[G]idson
[C]And[Bb] a tr[Am]iumph Bonn[Dm]eville
[G]Cou[C]nted his fr[F]iends in[C][G]
burned [C]out spark [Bb]plugs[Am]
And prays that he [Dm]always [G]will

[Verse 5]
[G]But he's the last [C]of the blue
[G]blood [D]greasers boy[G]s
[Em]And all of h[Am]is mates are doing time[D][G]
Married [C]with three [G]kid[D]s up
by [G]the ring [F]roa[Em]d
Sold their [Am]souls straight down [D]the line

[Verse 6]
[G]And some of [C]them[G][D]
own little [G]sports [F]cars
[Em]And meet at the tennis c[Am]lub do's[D]
[G]For drinks on [C]a Sunday,
[G]wor[D]k on Mon[G]day[F]
[Em]They've thrown away[Am]
their blue [D]suede shoes
[F]Now they're too

[Verse 7]
[Bb]old [C]to r[F]ock
[Bb]'n' roll[F][Eb]
[A]And they're too young to [Dm]die

[Verse 8]
[C]So the old [F]rocker [C]get[G]s out his bi[C]ke[Bb]
[Am]To make a ton before
[Dm]he takes h[G]is l[C]eave
Up [F]on the [C]A1 [G]by Scotch
[C]Corner[Bb][Am]
Just [Dm]like [G]it used to be
And as [C]he flies,[G]

[Verse 9]
[D]tea[Dm]rs in his eye[G] s[F]
[Em]His wind-whipped words
words [Am]echo the final [Dm]take[D]
[G]And he hits the[C] trunk road
[G]doing [D]around [G]a 1[F]20[Em]
With [Am]no room left to[D] brake
And [F]he was

[Verse 10]
[Bb]too [C]old [F]to rock 'n' [Bb]roll[F][Eb]
But [A]he was too young to [Dm]die
[F]He was [Bb]too o[C]ld t[F]o rock 'n' rol[Bb]l[F][Eb]
And [Bb]he was too young to [F]die

[Verse 11]
No, [Bb]you're never too [C]old[F]
to rock 'n' [Bb]roll[F][Eb]
[Bb]If you're too young to die[F]
No, [Bb]you're never too [C]old[F]
to rock 'n' [Bb]roll[F][Eb]
But he [Bb]was too young to die
