The intro arrpeggios are played over the chords A and D.
A D
E—————————|
B———-8————7—|
B———9————7——| 2 times
D——7————7——-|
A—0————5———-|
E—————————|
The main riff is rock and roll itself. Perhaps one of the
most used rock rythyms going — it still sounds fresh on this
album — even in 1994 !!
A
E—————————————|
B——3—3-po-2——3-3-po-2————|
G——2—2—-2——2-2—-2————|
D——4 -4-po-2——4-4-po-2————|
A—0—0—0—-0—0—0-0—-0—3-4-0—-|
E—————————————|
po = pull off
Try experimenting with this rythym until you get the
right feel. IT IS FUN !!!

{c:verse:}
y’ say that that you play too loud
well baby that’s tough
y’say that you got too much
can’t get enough
tell you that you look a fool
baby I’m a fool for you
say that you’re my disease
well, shake your stuff
{soc}
{c:chorus:}
It’s a R[G5]ock and [D/F#]Roll damn[A5]ation
[G5]ma’s own [D/F#]whipping b[A5]oy
[G5]rock and [D/F#]roll damn[A5]ation
[D5]take a chance
[E5]while you still got a choice
{eoc}
{npp}
{c:verse2:}
you say that you want respect
honey grow up
everything that you’ve done for me
well thanks a lot
c’mon, get up off your bended knees
y’can , set your mind at ease
my temperature’s running hot
and I’ve been waiting all night for a bite of what
you’ve got,and
{soc}
{c:Chorus: (Intro section over the lyrics)}
just a boy with a toy ( ??? )
come on and take your choice
cos you’re way out of reach
living in your sin you gotta practise what you preach
{eoc}
{soc}
{c:Chorus:}
It’s a R[G5]ock and [D/F#]Roll damn[A5]ation
[G5]ma’s own [D/F#]whipping b[A5]oy
[G5]rock and [D/F#]roll damn[A5]ation
[D5]take a chance
[D5]while you still got a choice

Back to the main riff for the solo which I can’t get to
sound right — but I know that just as the vocals come
back in the solo is playing something like:
E————17————|
B———————17—|
G—16b-16b—16b-16b——| repeatedly.
D————————-|
A————————-|
E————————-|
try messing around with this. It’s easier to stumble across
by playing than writing it down !!
