Its A Long Way To The Top Cifras

For the strumming pattern, begin on beat 4 with the percussive strum and downstroke. Throughout
the pattern you can change between percussive (fully muted) and partially muted strums to fill in
the gaps between full chord strums.
 
 
[Verse 1]
 
A
Riding down the highway
A
Going to a show
A
Stop in all the by-ways
A
Playing rock 'n' roll
A
Getting robbed, getting stoned, getting beat up, broken-boned
A
Getting had, getting took, I tell you folks, it's harder than it looks
 
 
[Chorus]
 
      A               G              D           A
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
      A               G              D           A
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
      A                                       D
If you think it's easy doing one night stands
 
Try playing in a rock 'n' roll band
      G               D                            A
It's a long way to the top if you wanna to rock 'n' roll
 
 
[Break]
 
A
 
G   D   A     x4
 
 
[Verse 2]
 
A
Hotel, motel
A
Make you want to cry
A
Lady do the hard sell
A
Know the reason why
A
Getting old, getting grey, getting ripped off, underpaid
A
Getting sold, second hand, that's how it goes, playing in a band
 
 
[Chorus]
 
      A               G              D           A
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
      A               G              D           A
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
      A                                     D
If you wanna be a star of stage and screen
 
Look out, it's rough and mean
      G               D              D           A
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
      G               D              D           A
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
      G               D              D           A
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
      G               D              D           A
It's a long way to the top if you wanna rock 'n' roll
 
 
[Outro]
 
A
It's a long way
A
Such a long way
A
It's a long way
A
Such a long way
