C​​​ROLLIN, Marley’s Ghost 

[C] Way out yonder where the road [F] disappears

I’ve been [Am] trying to get to that [G] place for [C] years

But the [C] longer I drive day after [F] day

[Am] That Old Road keeps [G] slipping [C] away

[C] Lonely is a word that some men [F] use

When they [Am] talk about them [G] rambling [C] blues

You can [C] curse your fate and you can curse the [F] cold

But you [Am] keep on rolling cuz it’s [G] all you [C] know

Chorus

I’ve [F] been to the mountain and I’ve [Bb] been to the [F] plain

Every [C] place I’ve been it all [G] looks the [C] same

If I [F] ever stopped rolling what [Bb] would I [F] be

A [C] shipwrecked sailor staring [G] out at the [C] sea

Be a [Am] shipwrecked sailor staring [G] out at the [C] sea

Be a [Am] shipwrecked sailor searching [G] for the [C] sea

Be a [Am] shipwrecked sailor in [G] Tennessee[C] .

Keep your [C] eye on the road and your hands on the [F] wheel

Don’t [Am] think about tomorrow or the [G] way you [C] feel

Just [C] listen to the tires sing that highway [F] song

It’s a [Am] short time here and a [G] LONG time [C] gone

[BREAK TO CHORUS]
