  G      C               G                       C
Freedom found me when I first heard The Beatles sing
G  D     Em                Am                    D7
Music surroundin' me, the church bells start to ring
G                   C         G                 C
I stole my daddy's vinyl and burned that needle out
G      D         Em          Am     D       G   D
Jimi, Janis and Morrison, a garden full of sound
   Em                Bm              C
I sold my car for an old guitar and set out on
     G
the road
    Am                                D
My Mama cried as she waved goodbye, prayin'
for my soul

Chorus:
G                 C            G                C
In rock and roll heaven, the great gig in the sky
       G           D     Em             D   C
Gotta make it to twenty-seven before I die, I
    G             C        G                C
In rock and roll heaven, couldn't get more high
       G         D           Em              D C
Gotta take what you've been given and just fly

Well, I learned a long, long time ago
that life is like a song
And the music goes on playing even after
you are gone
But to live so fast just to die so young
I hope you found some peace
Everything I am today is what you made of me

Chorus

        Em                    Bm
People come and go, but deep down I know
       C             Cm
We'll meet again someday

Chorus:
In rock and roll heaven, the great gig in the sky
Thought I was done livin', but I survived
In rock and roll heaven, couldn't get more high
Gotta take what you've been given and just fly


    G        C
In rock and roll
In rock and roll
In rock and roll
