This is tablature — fret positions rather than chord names. Wide lines scroll sideways on their own, so the page never does.

Here it comes, you're never gonna top it

On the run, you're never gonna stop it

Total style, perfection and decay

Running wild, flat out all the way

And you can ride it high

And you can light the way

Lift up your hands and pray

You can't stop rock and roll

Like a charging bull, it's a juggernaut

With steam on full, never to be caught

Incoming power, roaring from the sky

While others talk, rock will never die

It's an angry steed on a neverending course

With grace and speed, it's a neverending force

It's head blown back, defiantly proud

On the constant attack, blasting fast and loud
