Last Of The Rockstars - Elliott Murphy visit www.elliottmurphy.com Intro: x2 Verse 1 Naked telephone poles can’t describe The way I’m feeling about you tonight I’m on my back like an old brown jacket Like to stay in school but I just can’t hack it And I’m out on the street feeling like dirt I’m afraid to get married because I know its gonna hurt And I say Chorus Oh oh oh - there’s the last of the rock stars And me and you Oh oh oh - rock ’n roll is here to stay But who will be left to play ---------------- ---------------- Verse 2 Well I dreamed I saw the king in a fifty three chevy Had a band on his mind and his hands looked heavy And he rolled down his window I guess to say hi I couldn’t see his face ’cause of the purple haze inside And he was born to be the king - he was born to be the man And he died though he was holy - although I doubt he’d understand When I say Chorus Oh oh oh - there’s the last of the rock stars And me and you Oh oh oh - rock ’n roll is here to stay But who will be left to play .... (just keep playing this while he presents the band or he plays ’Shout’) Verse 3 If it means guitar you gotta have it And you got your axe and you got your group And your old man thinks its a waste of loot And you wait all week for a Sullivan show And you know that’s just where you wanna go And you homework now is never complete You don’t care - cause you have got that beat --------------- x3 --------------- Verse 4 So a highdy hi and a heydy hey And a girls that home on Friday night and a boy that’s out to play And some of us are masters and some or us are slaves And than there’s that boy who knows he’s gotta play And a messy desk drawer full of broken strings You know these kids and you know of those things Chorus Oh oh oh - there’s the last of the rock stars And me and you Oh oh oh - rock ’n roll is here to stay
