The Who - Rockin' In Rage: chords

      D              A#/D
If I can't speak my truth
            E/D     Dsus2
For fear of being abused
           D#/D      A#/D
I might as well be a mute
   F/D         C/D
My voice never used
D         A#/D
I'll be maligned
        E/D          Dsus2
I'll be distant and trolled
     D#/D      A#/D
If I can't be aligned
         F/D           C/D
I'll be thrown in the cold

   D                            Asus7/F#
I don't think I've ever felt so out on the margin
        Gm                  A#dim7
I'm too old to fight and we share these in blades
  Dm9                     Dm6
I feel like a leper, like handing my cards in
       A#/D                    C/D
Like I don't have the right to join the parades

     D         F/C   F/C         G7/B
I'm rockin' in rage, forward and back
    D          F/C          G7/B         A
My bones is engaged, they splinter and crack

      D          F/C      F/C         G7/B
Deep fire in the clock is one last rampage
  D           F/C        G7/B       A
Drop all the lines, I'm rockin' in rage

Chorus:
A          A/G  A A/G
Rockin' in rage
       A               A/G
Oh, I won't leave the stage
F                G        A
Oh yeah, I'm rockin' in rage

            A                                   G  D
If you can ride it right here, you know how to die
            A                                 G D
If you can conquer your fear, you'll get to fly
A        G           D A
Ooh, you'll get to fly

This must be your right
To get it down on the page
You know you must write
You know you must rage
You might learn to fly
Get out on the stage
But you might as well lie
Unless you can rage

I don't think I've ever felt so out on the margin
I'm too old to fight the machetes and blades
I feel like a leper, like handin' my cards in
Like I don't have the right to join the parades

I'm rockin' in rage, well past my prime
Denyin' the curtain, wastin' no time

So this is the carver, the death before age
I thought I'd be calm, but I'm rockin' in rage

Chorus:
Rockin' in rage,
ooh, I won't leave the stage
I'm rockin' in rage, rockin' in rage
Rockin' in rage, no,
I won't leave the stage
'Cause I'm a-rockin' in rage
No, no, no, ooh, I won't leave the stage
Oh, oh, I won’t leave the cage

If I can't speak my truth
For fear of being abused
I might as well be a mute
My voice never used
This must be my right
To get it down on the page
I know I must write
I know I must rage
