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 G 
Took a bead on the northern plains and just rolled that power on 

.C                              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' 

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
Solo: C F C F C F C F 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! Solo: C F C F C F C F C F C F C F C F C 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 G And I said, 'Next time, Next time we'll get it right.'
Solo: C F C F C F C F C F C F C F C F C F C Roll Me Away Roll me away. Tonight F C Fade Roll me away.
