Am                              F
So long ago and far away
Am                             F
Although it seems like yesterday
Am                            F
With dreams of wisdom dancing
Am                            F
Elude now he must say
Am                           F
Hush the angel's song, the demons want to play

Am                           F
No longer with the castle choir (ahh)
Am                           F
His quest but quenched by dark desire (desire)
Am                          F
He trembled and he shook 
Am                          F
As he climbed the canyon's wall
Am                          F
A weathered hand appeared, it would not let him fall

C           G                Em                         F
Into the night he sang the first lonely song of tears and pain
C              G              Em                     F
He played the first power chords about evil lords that reign
C             G            Em            F
Searchin' for answers, and finding only lies
C            G            Em             F
The first rocker found his voice, much to his surprise


Am                 F
"Hello there, weary traveler.
Am                 F
Hello, kind gypsy.
Am                 F
You must be hungry 
Am              F
Ah, yes, I am. 
Am              F
Please try my stew.
Am              F
Um, actually, wh- what's in this? 
Am               F
It's made of delicious mutton.
Uh-
Am                  F
To provide nourishment for your journeys.
Am                 F
It, uh, doesn't, doesn't look very, um-
Am                 F
I think it's pretty good stew.
Am                F
Oh, okay. Yeh, try some." 

Am                            F
He longed for answers that she knew
Am                          F
(Longed for answers that she knew)
Am                              F
That weathered hag went on of nothing more than stew
Am                             F
And then he peeked inside the gypsy scrol
Am                            F
l Loosely translated, it just said "Rock and roll"

C               G                   Em               F
Into the night he sang the first lonely song of tears and pain
C               G                   Em               F
He played the first power chords as the skies began to rain
C               G                   Em               F
He know how the worlds collide when the angels call his name
C               G                   Em               F
They've never heard a darker song with such a sweet
