C                           Em
What's the matter with the clothes I'm wearing?
          A#                        F
"Can't ya tell that your tie's too wide?"
C                       Em
Maybe I should buy some old tab collars?
         A#                  F
"Welcome back to the age of jive."

Chorus:
Em                           Am
 "Where have you been hidin' out lately, honey?
    Em                            D             G
You cant dress trashy till you spend a lot of money"
C            Em                A#
Everybody's talkin' 'bout the new sound.
F                Am             G       C
Funny, but it's still rock and roll to me.

What's the matter with the car I'm driving?
Can't you tell that it's out of style?
Should I get a set of whitewall tires?
Are you gonna cruise the miracle mile?

Chorus:
Nowadays you can't be too sentimental
Your best bet's a true baby blue Continental
Hot funk, cool punk, even if it's old junk
It's still rock and roll to me

C  G                             F
Oh, it doesn't matter what they say in the papers,
           E                          Am
Cause it's always been the same old scene.
                 G                        F
Well, there's a new band in town but you can't
get the sound
         E             G#
From a story in a magazine,
D#                     F  G
Aimed at your average teen.

How about a pair of pink sidewinders
And a bright orange pair of pants?
You could really be a Beau Brummel baby
If you just give it half a chance

Chorus:
Don't waste your money on a new set of speakers
You get more mileage from a cheap pair of sneakers
Next phase, new wave, dance craze, anyways
It's still rock and roll to me
Alright Richie!

Woo!
Ooh

What's the matter with the crowd I'm seeing?
Don't you know that they're out of touch?
Should I try to be a straight 'A' student?
If you are then you think too much

Chorus:
Don't you know about the new fashion, honey?
All you need are looks and a whole lotta money
It's the next phase, new wave
Dance craze, anyways
It's still rock and roll to me
Everybody's talkin' 'bout the new sound
Funny, but it's still rock and roll to me
