"Rolling By" by REK
Capo 3rd - all chords are written as 3rd fret was open
Intro - D C D C D C G D
Verse 1:
[D]It's a busted old [C]town on the [G]plains of West Te[D]xas
[D]The drugstore's closed do[C]wn, and the ri[G]ver runs d[D]ry
[D]The semi's roll thr[C]ough like stai[G]nless steel sta[D]llions
Goin ha[D]rd, going fa[C]st, goin wi[G]ld
Rollin h[D]ard, Rollin f[C]ast, Rollin [G]by
(same progression the rest of the song, solos and all)
And the mission still stand at the edge of the plateau
A stone marks the grave where the old cowboys lie
Asleep in a time, in a town just a youngster
Goin hard, going fast, going wild
Rollin hard, rollin fast, rollin by
And the drive-in dont play no Friday night pictures
No big silver screen to light up the sky
Gone are the days of post-war-time lovers
goin hard, goin fast, goin wild
Rollin hard, rollin fast, rollin by
And me I stand here at the last fillin station
Where the wind moans a dirge to the coyote's cry
I jump in my car, I'm back out on the highway
Goin hard, goin fast, goin wild
Rollin hard, rollin fast, rolling by
Goin hard, goin fast, goin wild
Rollin hard, rollin fast, rollin by
