Well, they [C5]say it's kinda frightnin'
how this younger generation swings.
You know, it's [Bb]more than just some new sensation.
Well, the k[C5]id is into losin' sleep

You know, it's more than just an aggra[Bb]vat[(Bbsus/A)]ion. [(Bb)] [(Bbsus/A)] [(Bb)] [C]

And the c[Am]radle will[G/A] rock.
Yes, the [Am]cradle, the cradle will[G] rock.
And I say, [Am]rock on![G/A]
[Am]Rock on![G]
VERSE 2
And when s[F5]ome local kid gets down,
they try and drum him out of town.
They say, "You coulda le[Eb]ast faked it, boy."
At an [F5]early age he hits the street
and winds up tied with who he meets,

and he's unemployed.
