Joan Jett & The Blackhearts : I Love Rock'N'Roll


Hi folks! That's a raw version of this song. Especially about the
solo I'm not sure at all. I hope that there aren't too much
mistakes. If you find some or if you have any corrections or

This sounds OK when you play it by yourself, but a bit warped when you play along with
the recording. The little squiggle ~ means palm mute, but QUICKLY. listen to the actual
song for the exact rhyhms etc.

I saw him dancin' there by the record machine

I knew he must 'a been about seventeen

The beat was going strong

Playin' my favorite song

An' I could tell it wouldn't be long

Till he was with me, yeah me

An' I could tell it wouldn't be long
