Introduction:
C F C F
Took a look down a westbound road, Right away I made my choice.
C F C F G
Headed out to my big two-wheeler, I was tired of my own voice
G C F C G
Took a bead on the northern plains and just rolled that power on
F C F
Twelve hours out of Mackinaw City, Stopped in a bar to have a brew
C F C F G
Met a girl, and we had a few drinks, and I told her what I'd decided to do
G C F C G
She looked out the window a long, long moment, Then she looked into my eyes.
G
She didn't have to say a thing, I knew what she was thinkin'
.[CHORUS]
C F C F
Roll, roll me away, Won't you roll me away tonight?
C F C F G
I too am lost, I feel double-crossed, And I'm sick of what's wrong and what's right.
C F C G
We never even said a word, We just walked out and got on that bike, And we rolled,
G
And we rolled clean out of sight
Dm G Dm G Am Em
We rolled across the high plains, Deep into the mountains. Felt so good to me
Am G Dm G Dm G
Finally feelin' free. Somewhere along a high road the air began to turn cold
Am Em Am G
She said she missed her home. I headed on alone. Oh!
C F C F C F
Stood alone on a mountain top, Starin' out at the Great Divide I could go east, I could go
C F G C F
west It was all up to me to decide. Just then I saw a young hawk flyin', And my soul began to
C G
rise, And pretty soon, my heart was singin'
C F C F C
Roll, roll me away, I'm gonna roll me away tonight.
F C F G
Gotta keep rollin', gotta keep ridin', Keep searchin' till I find what's right
C F C G
And as the sunset faded I spoke to the faintest first starlight,
G
And I said, "Next time, Next time we'll get it right."
F C F C F C F C F C F C
Roll Me Away Roll me away. Tonight
F CFade
Roll me away.
