[Verse 1]
F#
Riding down the highway
F#
Going to a show
F#
Stop in all the by-ways
F#
Playing rock 'n' roll
F#
Getting robbed, getting stoned, getting beat up, broken-boned
F#
Getting had, getting took, I tell you folks, it's harder than it looks
[Chorus]
F# E B F#
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
F# E B F#
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
F# B
If you think it's easy doing one night stands
Try playing in a rock 'n' roll band
E B F#
It's a long way to the top if you wanna to rock 'n' roll
[Break]
F#
E B F# x4
[Verse 2]
F#
Hotel, motel
F#
Make you want to cry
F#
Lady do the hard sell
F#
Know the reason why
F#
Getting old, getting grey, getting ripped off, underpaid
F#
Getting sold, second hand, that's how it goes, playing in a band
[Chorus]
F# E B F#
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
F# E B F#
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll

If you wanna be a star of stage and screen
Look out, it's rough and mean
E B B F#
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
E B B F#
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
E B B F#
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
E B B F#
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
