Intro: G C (2x)
[G]Cut me down, bury this[C] rosary
Somewh[G]ere out of town, somewhere out [C]by the sea
And [G]take this ring, and give it to[C] Emily
Tell her I[G]'m peaceful now, Tell her I've [C]been released
[C/B]I will be [Am]rolling on, I will be [D7]rolling on
Well I [G]know that drill, I know it [C]all too well
It starts like a [G]lonely voice, and it shifts to a [C]tolling bell
Like rain on the [G]dusty ground, small bones in the [C]driest well
The spark breeds a [G]fiery tongue, and the tongues kiss the [C]cheek of Hell
And [C/B]I will be [Am]rolling on, I will be [D7]rolling on
I've had my [Am]part to play, and now I'm [D7]going home
Interlude: G C (2x)
There's no telling [G]which way, boys, this thing is [C]going to take hold
From the fruit on a [G]poplar tree, to the bruise round a [C]band of gold
From the blood in a [G]far country, to the war of j[C]ust growing old
We travel a [G]lower road, and it's lonely and it is [C]cold
But [C/B]we will be [Am]rolling on, we will be [D7]rolling on
We've had our [Am]part to play, now we are [D7]going home
We will keep [Am]rolling on, we will keep [D7]rolling on
'Cos for every m[Am]idnight hour, there's always a [D7]rising sun[G] [C]
Oooo[G]ooooooooooh, Oooo[C]ooooooooooh (4x)
(Fade out)
