Intro: A# A# A# A# - x4

 A#                     A#
Ridin' down the highway
Goin' to a show
Stoppin' on the byways
Playin' rock 'n' roll

         A#               A#
Gettin' robbed, gettin' stoned
Gettin' beat up, broken boned
Getting had, getting took
A#                      A#
I tell you folks, it's harder than it looks

Chorus:
        A#              G#
It's a long way to the top

If you wanna rock 'n' roll

If you think it's easy doing one night stands
Try playing in a rock 'n' roll band

It's a long way to the top

 A#           A#
Hotel, motel
Make you want to cry
Ladies do the hard sell
Know the reason why

        A#             A#
Gettin' old, gettin' gray
Gettin' ripped off, underpaid
Gettin' sold, second-hand
  A#                  A#
That's how it goes, playin' in a band

Chorus:

If you wanna be a star of stage and screen
                A#
Look out, it's rough and mean

It's a long way to the top,
        D#               A#     A#
if you want to rock 'n' roll

Well, it's a long way
Oh, it's a long way
(You should have told me)
It's a long way
Such a long way
