 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.
