G C G
Old man walking down the street wind was at his back
C G
He’s headed to a place today and he won’t be coming back
D
He’s gotta roll on
C G
Roll on down the road
D
He’s gotta roll on
Em
Cause he’s gotta long way to go
G C
To get away from the people, paupers and the priest
G D
And the men with shoes on their feet
G C
And the women who are liars and the lone high wires
G D
And the house that’s all alone
D
He’s gotta roll on
C G
Roll on down the road
D
He’s gotta roll on
Em
Cause he’s gotta long way to go
G C G
He bought him a ticket today and it had no return
G C G
Don’t need a bag to carry he just let it burn
D
He’s gotta roll on
C G
Roll on down the road
D
He’s gotta roll on
Em
Cause he’s gotta long way to go
G C G
He’s headed to the place where the sun always shining
G C G
Ain’t got no water and he ain’t concerned
D
He’s gotta roll on
C G
Roll on down the road
D
He’s gotta roll on
Em
And he ain’t got far to go
