(G. Simmons & V. Vincent)
[Rhythm Fig. 1]
[Intro.]
[Rhythm Fig. 1]
The sky is fallin' and the wheels of life are grindin' out a brand new beat
[Rhythm Fig. 2]
The streets are burnin' with the call of the wild, and I can feel the heat
[Rhythm Fig. 1]
They'll call you names and spit in your face, but legends never die
[Rhythm Fig. 3]
Just pick up your guitar, on your knees and pray and hold your head up high
[Rhythm Fig. 4]
And on the 8th day God created rock and roll
On the 8th day God created rock and roll
[Rhythm Fig. 1]
Out of the ashes came the dawn and the shape of things to come
[Rhythm Fig. 2]
Never surrender, just carry on, straight to kingdom come
[Rhythm Fig. 1]
You sold your soul and virginity, can't rape a heart of gold
[Rhythm Fig. 3]
Yes you're born to rule, it's destiny, now it can be told
[Rhythm Fig. 4]
And on the 8th day God created rock and roll (rock and roll)

[Rhythm Fig. 5] w/ [Solo.]
[Rhythm Fig. 1](without first note)
Rock of ages carry the news to the heart of a brave new world
[Rhythm Fig. 3]
Feel the noise in the name of rock, let the heavens roar
[Rhythm Fig. 4]
And on the 8th day God created rock and roll (rock and roll)
And on the 8th day God created rock and roll
