"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                 C           G                D
It's a busted old town on the plains of West Texas

D                        C             G         D
The drugstore's closed down, and the river runs dry

D                  C             G              D
The semi's roll through like stainless steel stallions

       D           C          G
Goin hard, going fast, goin wild

        D            C           G
Rollin hard, Rollin fast, Rollin 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

Rollin' Hard, Rollin' Fast, Rollin' Wild
