ROCKAWAY BEACH
Chewing out a rhythm on my bubble gum
The sun is out and I want some.
DIt's not hard, not far to reach
We can hitch a ride to Rockaway Beach.
Up on the roof, out on the street
Down in the playground the hot concrete
Busride is too slow
They blast out the disco on the radio

All songs by Ramones except
Do You Wanna Dance? by Freeman
Surfin' Bird by White/Frazier/Harris/Wilson
Chords are mostly 5's but indicating this all the time would be a mess.
They're mostly 'major-like' anyway except for F#5 in Here Today, Gone
Tomorrow, which may even be F#m.
NC means no chord.
Lyrics are from uwp and were sent by Eric Wincentsen.
