[Intro]
Cadd9 Dadd4 Cadd9 Dadd4
[Verse 1]
Cadd9 Dadd4 Cadd9 Dadd4
Back when I was younger, wild and bold and free
Cadd9 Dadd4 G D/F# Em
I can still remember, how the music used to be
Cadd9 Dadd4 Cadd9 Dadd4
Chords like rolling thunder, loud beyond control
Cadd9 Dadd4 G D/F# Em
Every note and lyric branded right across my soul
[Chorus 1]
C G
Where did the rock go
C Bm
Where's the rush of those electric guitars
Am Em
Where are all those voices raised to heaven
Am C G
Blazing down like shooting stars
C G
Tell me where is the passion
C Bm
Where's the rattle and the roar and the buzz
Am Em
Where do last year's one-hit-wonders go to
Am C G
And what happened to the girl I was
[Verse 2]
Cadd9 Dadd4 Cadd9 Dadd4
Somehow I got older, year by busy year
Cadd9 Dadd4 G D/F# Em
Guess the songs kept playing, but I didn't stop to hear
Cadd9 Dadd4 Cadd9 Dadd4
All that youth and swagger turned to grown-up doubt
Cadd9 Dadd4 G D/F# Em
as the world spun like a record, and the music faded out
[Chorus 2]
C G
Where did the rock go
C Bm
Where's the pounding of the drums in my veins
Am Em
When did all the static fill the airwaves
Am C G
When it's gone, then what remains
C G
Tell me where did the time go
C Bm
Where's the joy I used to know, way back when
[Bridge]
F C
Where's the power and the beauty
G
Then the frantic end, the rapture
F C
Where's the magic of the moments
G
only rock could ever capture
F C
Now the only thing I'm hearing
G
are the echoes disappearing
[Verse 3]
Cadd9 Dadd4 Cadd9 Dadd4
Sorry for the outburst, please, I'll be okay
Cadd9 Dadd4 G D/F# Em
Let's keep this our secret, who'd believe it anyway
Cadd9 Dadd4 Cadd9 Dadd4
We'll pretend it never happened, file it and forget
Cadd9 Dadd4 G D/F# Em
Still, thanks for the reminder that there's music in me yet
[Chorus 3]
C G
Where did the rock go
C Bm
All those feelings that I learned to ignore
Am Em
If you flip the record and start over
Am C G
does it sound the way it did before
C G
