Lirik dan Kunci Gitar Rheostatics - My First Rock Concert

   G
My first rock concert was a stadium affair
    C              D          G
our dads drove us down to the front gates there,
G
And we looked at all the people and all their rock-n-roll hair,
            C          D              G
And for the very first time i smelled dope in the air,
          E     C        G
And we saw ELO, but they sucked.
    D                                                            C                        D
But Meatloaf was wicked, so we gave it up for the fat man. (Gave it up for Meat)
   G
My second rock show I was offered some pot,
        C        D                   G
But i refused to be swayed or to be caught by a cop.
G
Geddy, Alex, Neil: they played penultimate rock,
C             D                 G
And for the very last song they set off five flash pots,
E        C                    G
My friend had an epileptic fit.
D                                                       C
But the crowd cheered him on cause they thought that he was dancing.
D
(Thought that he was a fool on his back.)
G
My third rock show was an epochal day,
C        D              G
It was out at the ex, beneath the Alpine way
G
Aerosmith and Goddo, they were okay,
    C                D                    G                     E
But when i saw the Ramones and it changed the way i saw the world.
C        G
I saw everything.
D                                        C
So I bought a leather jacket, cut holes in my jeans.
D                                                       C               D
When my parents saw my pants, then they took away the car keys for two days.
G
The Specials, Gand of Four, and all the new wave.
                  C         D                           G
I saw the Birthday Party play with Nick Cave.
G
I saw XTC twice, I thought Paul Weller was Christ.
C       D                       G
I even met Michael Stipe, he was distant but he was nice.
E               C       G
Joe Jackson saved my life
D                                       C
At Massey Hall, I got up and i started to dance
D                                       C
Big ol' cop, he grabbed me, and pinned me against the stage.
D                                       C
Cop reached down, and he took the hat off my head.
D                                       C
Then Joe reached down and he took the hat off the cops head,
D                                        C              D
So i wiggled free and i ran up into the balcony and swan dived.
G
Now it's many years later and I'm up on the stage,
C       D                G
Sometimes i feel a little like a bird in a cage.
G
Under these lights you're either a mouse or a sage,
C        D      G
Music belies one's actual age.
E       C                G
Is it just a passing churn (yeah, could be, could be)?
D                                                C
Like a rusty car, hair style, or an old shirt (shirt shirt),
D                                C              D
A CHUM chart, an 8 track, or a gate-folds double live.
G C D G
Oh yeah, I was there
