And The Cradle Will Rock
Van Halen
INTRO (1 bar each) / / Well they say it’s kinda frightnin’ how this younger generation swings. You know it’s more than just some new sensation. Well the kid is into losin’ sleep and he don’t come home for half the week. You know it’s more than just an aggravation. CHORUS And the cradle will rock. Yes the cradle the cradle will rock. And I say rock on! Rock on! VERSE 2 And when some local kid gets down they try and drum him out of town. They say "You coulda least faked it boy." At an early age he hits the street and winds up tied with who he meets and he’s unemployed. REPEAT CHORUS SOLO - still in 4/4 but the 2nd chord in a pair comes in a beat "early" (or /) last riff: (grace note ) -octave up) no chord: Have you seen Junior’s grades? / / VERSE 3 (same as V2) And when some local kid gets down they try and drum him out of town. They say "You coulda least faked it boy." At an early age he hits the street and winds up tied with who he meets and he’s unemployed. His folks are overjoyed. CHORUS TO FADE
