If he wants to (Bb)rock, he rocks.
If he wants to (Bb)roll, he rolls.
He can roll with the punch es, long as he feels like he’s in con trol.
And a if he wants to (Bb)stay, he stays.
If he wants to (Bb)go, he goes.
He does n’t care how he gets there, (F)long as he gets some where he knows.
Oh, no.
Na na na na na na na (F)na na na na na.
Na na na na na na na (F)na na na na na.

It’s all her trust if on ly in the morn ing she knew where she lived.
If she wants to (Bb)rock, she rocks.
If she wants to (Bb)roll, she rolls.
She can roll with the punch es, long as she feels like she’s in con trol.
And a if she wants to (Bb)stay, she stays.
If she wants to (Bb)go, she goes.
She does n’t care how she gets there, (F)long as she gets some where she knows.
Oh, no.
Na na na na na na na (F)na na na na na.
Na na na na na na na (F)na na na na na.
And in (Ab)a wink they’re on the brink, from drink to drink and (Eb)at the bar, with cash (Cm)to blow.
From shot to shot, it’s get ting hot.

- Does it show chords so I can play along on guitar or piano?
- It does — a chord symbol sits on a thin row just above the lyric it changes on, so the same screen doubles as a lyrics-and-chords chart. Guitarists can strum the changes and pianists can comp while singing; the chords are colour-coded and move with the live transpose if you change key.
- Can I change the key of "Rock & Roll" to match my voice or capo?

- Can I slow "Rock & Roll" down to learn the words and chords?
- Yes — the tempo control lets you take it as slow as you need while the lyrics still light up in time and the ball keeps you on the beat. Speed it back up once you can sing and play it through.
